Microglial and astrocyte activation and related cytokine secretion play key roles in secondary brain injury following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We assessed the role of aquaporin (AQP)2 in immune response after ICH.

Glucocorticoid Receptor Maintains Vasopressin Responses in Kidney Collecting Duct Cells
Water permeability of the kidney collecting ducts is regulated in part by the amount of the molecular water channel protein aquaporin-2 (AQP2), whose expression, in turn, is regulated by the pituitary peptide hormone vasopressin.

Aquaporin-2 in the “-omics” Era [PDF]
Vasopressin controls renal water excretion largely through actions to regulate the water channel aquaporin-2 in collecting duct principal cells. Our knowledge of the mechanisms involved has increased markedly in recent years with the advent of methods for large-scale systems-level profiling such as protein mass spectrometry, yeast two-hybrid analysis ...

Minireview: Aquaporin 2 Trafficking [PDF]
In the kidney aquaporin-2 (AQP2) provides a target for hormonal regulation of water transport by vasopressin. Short-term control of water permeability occurs via vesicular trafficking of AQP2 and long-term control through changes in the abundance of AQP2 and AQP3 water channels.

Vasopressin and the regulation of aquaporin-2 [PDF]
Water excretion is regulated in large part through the regulation of osmotic water permeability of the renal collecting duct epithelium. Water permeability is controlled by vasopressin through regulation of the water channel, aquaporin-2 (AQP2).

The Role of Vasopressin V2 Receptor in Drug-Induced Hyponatremia
Hyponatremia is frequently encountered in clinical practice and usually induced by renal water retention. Many medications are considered to be among the various causes of hyponatremia, because they either stimulate the release of arginine vasopressin ...

Ubiquitination of Aquaporin-2 in the Kidney [PDF]
Ubiquitination is known to be important for endocytosis and lysosomal degradation of aquaporin-2 (AQP2). Ubiquitin (Ub) is covalently attached to the lysine residue of the substrate proteins and activation and attachment of Ub to a target protein is mediated by the action of three enzymes (i.e., E1, E2, and E3). In particular, E3 Ub-protein ligases are

The critical contribution of aquaporin-2 (AQP) to water homeostasis in mammals is highlighted by the severe concentrating defects seen in humans with mutations in the AQP2 gene and in mice that are AQP2 null or have loss-of-function mutations in AQP2 .[1][1],[2][2] The role of the ...
