GA text Overexpression of aquaporins AQP1, AQP3, or AQP5 in HEK‐293 T cells induced changes in cell biophysical properties and migration. Atomic force microscopy (AFM)–based force spectroscopy studies demonstrated that AQP1 overexpression increased cell stiffness and cell–cell adhesion, AQP3 augmented cell stiffness but reduced cell–cell adhesion ...

Cryopreservation of Anopheles gambiae Larvae
Advancements in vector control methods have resulted in a rapidly growing collection of critically important mosquito strains necessitating the development of cryopreservation protocols to minimize the risk of genetic drift, cross‐contamination, or catastrophic loss.

The Aquaporin Channel Repertoire of the Tardigrade
Limno-terrestrial tardigrades are small invertebrates that are subjected to periodic drought of their micro-environment. They have evolved to cope with these unfavorable conditions by anhydrobiosis, an ametabolic state of low cellular water.

The Journey of Arsenic from Soil to Grain in Rice
Arsenic (As) is a non-essential toxic metalloid whose elevated concentration in rice grains is a serious issue both for rice yield and quality, and for human health. The rice-As interactions, hence, have been studied extensively in past few decades.

Mechanism of CO2 and NH3 transport through human aquaporin 1: Evidence for parallel CO2 pathways
Abstract figure legend The figure illustrates the permeation pathways for CO2, NH3 and H2O through AQP1. The panel on the left, with the wild‐type protein under control conditions, CO2 moves through monomeric pores (2 of 4 shown) but predominantly via an alternate pathway (perhaps the central pore of the tetramer).

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: Ion channels
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

Introduction: Metabolic diseases are related with severe fertility problems, partly due to increased aromatization of androgens to estrogens. Elevated levels of 17β-Estradiol (E2) are known to cause alterations on normal development of germ cells ...
