Unique Regulation of AQP1 and AQP5 Expression by HIF-1 in Nucleus Pulposus Cells

Global Spine Journal, 2014
Introduction Aquaporins are a family of transmembrane water channels that aid in osmoregulation, a critical function in the proteoglycan-rich nucleus pulposus. Previous reports have demonstrated expression of aquaporins in the intervertebral disc.

Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

Periconceptional ethanol exposure induces a sex specific diuresis and increase in AQP2 and AVPR2 in the kidneys of aged rat offspring

Physiological Reports, 2019
Maternal alcohol consumption can impair renal development and program kidney dysfunction in offspring. Given that most women who drink alcohol cease consumption upon pregnancy recognition, we aimed to investigate the effect of alcohol around the time of ...

Brain Clearance of Contrast Agent in Intravenous DCE‐MRI Is Measurable and Cannot Be Explained by Clearance Across the BBB Alone

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To determine the feasibility of measuring brain clearance of gadolinium contrast agent using standard intravenous DCE‐MRI acquisitions and evaluate the contribution of blood–brain barrier (BBB) and non‐BBB clearance routes. Methods Uptake and extended Tofts models were fit to DCE‐MRI data from people with Parkinson's disease, post ...

IgG Subclass (IgG1‐4) and IgA Autoantibody Profiles Against Muscle‐Specific Kinase in a Greek Cohort

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Muscle‐specific kinase myasthenia gravis (MuSK‐MG) is an autoimmune neuromuscular disorder predominantly mediated by IgG4 autoantibodies disrupting MuSK signaling. The contribution of other isotypes remains incompletely defined. We characterized the serological profile of a Greek cohort of MuSK‐MG patients.

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...
