Contrasting disease patterns in seropositive and seronegative neuromyelitis optica: A multicentre study of 175 patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: The diagnostic and pathophysiological relevance of antibodies to aquaporin-4 (AQP4-Ab) in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) has been intensively studied. However, little is known so far about the clinical impact of

Barley plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIP aquaporins) as water and CO2 transporters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We identified barley aquaporins and demonstrated that one, HvPIP2;1, transports water and CO2. Regarding water homeostasis in plants, regulations of aquaporin expression were observed in many plants under several environmental stresses. Under salt stress,

Expression and localization of Aquaporin 1a in the sea-bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) during ontogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The successful establishment of a species in a given habitat depends on the ability of each of its developing stages to adapt to the environment. In order to understand this process we have studied the adaptation of a euryhaline fish, the sea-bass ...

Evaluation of aquaporin‐4 antibody assays [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Neuroimmunology, 2014
Abstract Aquaporin‐4 ( AQP 4) is a water channel protein that is most highly, but not exclusively, expressed in the central nervous system. In 2005 AQP 4 was shown to be the antigenic target of neuromyelitis optica‐immunoglobulin G (

Structure determination of membrane-located complexes: Aquaporin 8 and YscC secretin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A biological membrane is key to the life of a cell. In all living cells a biological membrane separates a inner life and an outer environment. Plasma membrane has many functions such as responding to external signals and transmitting them into the cell,

Bisacodyl overcomes morphine-induced constipation by decreasing colonic Aquaporin-3 and Aquaporin-4 expression [PDF]

open access: yesResearch Results in Pharmacology, 2022
Introduction: Morphine is an opioid prescribed to treat aches and pains. However, morphine often causes opioid-induced constipation (OIC). Aquaporin (AQP) transporters, especially AQP3 and AQP4, play an essential role in mediating constipation. Bisacodyl
