Quantitative analysis of aquaporin-2 phosphorylation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2010
The action of vasopressin in rodent collecting ducts to regulate water permeability depends in part on increases in phosphorylation of the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) at three sites: Ser256, Ser264, and Ser269. Previous studies of AQP2 phosphorylation have depended largely on qualitative data using protein mass spectrometry and phospho-specific ...

Aquaporin-4 expression in distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles

open access: yesBMC 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.

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...

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

open access: yesClinical 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)

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

open access: yesAnnals 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

open access: yesAnnals 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.

Reduced urinary release of AQP1‐ and AQP2‐bearing extracellular vesicles in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
Although several studies have shown that release of water channel proteins, aquaporin 1 (AQP1) and AQP2 in urinary extracellular vesicles (uEV‐AQP1 and ‐AQP2), were altered in experimental kidney injury models, their release in human chronic kidney ...

Structure of Aquaporin-2 Vasopressin Water Channel [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
Aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) is a vasopressin-regulated water channel in the kidney collecting duct. AQP-2 is selectively permeable to water molecule and is translocated between the apical membrane and subapical endosomes in response to vasopressin. To investigate the localization and structure of the aqueous pathway of the AQP-2 water channel, a series of site-

Comparative Effectiveness and Safety of Inebilizumab Versus Rituximab in AQP4‐IgG‐Positive NMOSD

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Rituximab (anti‐CD20, RTX) and inebilizumab (anti‐CD19, INE) represent B‐cell‐depleting therapies used for aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive (AQP4‐IgG+) neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD); however, direct comparative evidence remains limited.

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

open access: yesLife
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 ...
