FEBS Open Bio, 2015 Several point mutations have been identified in human aquaporins, but their effects on the function of the respective aquaporins are mostly enigmatic. We analyzed the impact of the aquaporin 2 mutation V71M, which causesnephrogenic diabetes insipidus in ...

Aquaporin‐2 regulation in health and disease [PDF]
Veterinary Clinical Pathology, 2012 AbstractAquaporin‐2 (AQP2), the vasopressin‐regulated water channel of the renal collecting duct, is dysregulated in numerous disorders of water balance in people and animals, including those associated with polyuria (urinary tract obstruction, hypokalemia, inflammation, and lithium toxicity) and with dilutional hyponatremia (syndrome of inappropriate ...

Aquaporin-4 expression in distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles
BMC Neurology, 2012 Background Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles/hereditary inclusion body myopathy is clinically characterized by the early involvement of distal leg muscles. The striking pathological features of the myopathy are muscle fibers with rimmed vacuoles.

P2X receptors: epithelial ion channels and regulators of salt and water transport. [PDF]
, 2008 When the results from electrophysiological studies of renal epithelial cells are combined with data from in vivo tubule microperfusion experiments and immunohistochemical surveys of the nephron, the accumulated evidence suggests that ATP-gated ion ...

Aquaporin-2 in the immature rat [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 1997 The immature kidney is resistant to arginine vasopressin. To define the role of aquaporin-2 (AQP-2), the developmental expression of this water channel was studied in rats. AQP-2 levels were lower during early postnatal life, reaching maximal expression at 10 wk of age. Concurrently, urine osmolality increased from 242 +/- 60 to 1267 +/- 311 mosmol/kg.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is a molecular water channel protein responsible for water reabsorption by the kidney collecting ducts. Many water balance disorders are associated with defects in AQP2 gene expression regulated by the peptide hormone vasopressin. Here,

The influence of high and low levels of estrogen on diurnal urine regulation in young women [PDF]
, 2008 : BACKGROUND: Sex hormones have a pronounced effect on arginine vasopressin (AVP), and therefore on the diurnal water homeostasis. Low and high levels of plasma-estradiol as seen in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle may therefore alter the ...

Oxytocin regulates the expression of aquaporin 5 in the late-pregnant rat uterus [PDF]
, 2014 Aquaporins (AQPs) are integral membrane channels responsible for the transport of water across a cell membrane. Based on reports that AQPs are present and accumulate in the female reproductive tract late in pregnancy, our aim was to study the expression

Nuclear Receptor Regulation of Aquaporin-2 in the Kidney [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016 Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is a vasopressin-regulated water channel responsible for regulating water reabsorption through the apical plasma membrane of the principal cells of renal collecting ducts. It has been found that dysregulation and dysfunction of AQP2 cause many disorders related to water balance in people and animals, including polyuria and dilutional
