Paramagnetic Rim Lesions Are Associated With Trans‐Synaptic Degeneration of the Visual Pathway in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Retrograde trans‐synaptic degeneration (rTSD) from posterior visual pathway lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by hemi‐macular ganglion cell‐inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thinning and contralateral visual field loss.

Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) increased aquaporin-2 expression in spontaneously hypertensive rats

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2019
Recent evidence suggests that elevated plasma levels of Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) can prolong the duration of elevated blood pressure in rats. The purpose of this study was to investigate the plasma TMAO level in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR)

Interferon-γ suppresses intestinal epithelial aquaporin-1 expression via Janus kinase and STAT3 activation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Inflammatory bowel diseases are associated with dysregulated electrolyte and water transport and resultant diarrhea. Aquaporins are transmembrane proteins that function as water channels in intestinal epithelial cells.

Low Incidence of Relapses After Vaccination in Anti‐Aquaporin‐4 Antibody‐Positive NMOSD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) may experience increased signs and symptoms of their underlying disease when vaccinated against meningococcal disease before receiving complement component 5 inhibitor therapies. This retrospective analysis indicated an overall low relapse incidence (mean [range], 3.3% [0.7%–10.6 ...

Aquaporin-2 membrane targeting: still a conundrum [PDF]

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2017
The targeting of the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) to the apical plasma membrane of kidney collecting duct principal cells is regulated mainly by the antidiuretic peptide hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP). This process is of crucial importance for the maintenance of body water homeostasis.

Duloxetine-Induced Antidiuresis in Rats with Lithium-Induced Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus

Life
Antidepressants, including duloxetine, are a significant cause of drug-induced hyponatremia, which can disrupt the continuation of medication. Tolvaptan is beneficial for correcting hyponatremia caused by the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis, but ...

Consequences of aquaporin 2 tetramerization for genetics and routing [PDF]

Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2000
in 90% of cases caused by mutations in the gene on the X chromosome coding for the V 2 receptor. In 10% blotting analysis showed that AQP2-E258K was of afflicted families, mutations in the AQP2 water retained in the Golgi compartment and not retarded channel gene have been shown to be the cause of the in the endoplasmic reticulum as are AQP2 mutants in

Understanding Further the Phenotypic Spectrum of Central Nervous System Inflammatory Demyelinating Disorders Using Unsupervised Clustering

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) inflammatory demyelinating syndromes, including multiple sclerosis (MS), aquaporin‐4 antibody–positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4 + NMOSD), and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), occasionally overlap.

Ofatumumab in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody–Associated Disease: A Comparison With Rituximab

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ofatumumab in patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), and compare it with rituximab. Methods We conducted a single–center, observational study including 22 MOGAD patients treated with ofatumumab and 21 treated with rituximab.

Urinary aquaporin-2 excretion in nocturnal enuresis [PDF]

European Journal of Endocrinology, 2001
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the role of the arginine vasopressin (AVP)-aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) axis in the pathogenesis of nocturnal enuresis. STUDY PARTICIPANTS: Twelve children (seven male and five female), aged 11.6+/-4.3 (6.7-15.6) years, suffering from primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis and 12 healthy children, matched for sex and age.
