Aquaporin 4 and its Relationship with Brain Astrocytomas – Literature Review
Background Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of membrane proteins that regulate the osmotic permeability of the plasma membrane. There are described in the literature a total of 13 types of Aquaporins in mammals, each with different places of expression. In

Increased T-cell immunity against aquaporin-4 and proteolipid protein in neuromyelitis optica. [PDF]
In neuromyelitis optica (NMO), B-cell autoimmunity to aquaporin-4 (AQP4) has been shown to be essential. However, the role of T cells remains ambiguous. Here, we first showed an increase in CD69+ activated T cells in PBMCs during NMO relapses.

The role of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) in spinal cord injury.
Aquaporin-4 (AQP-4) is an aquaporin composed of six helical transmembrane domains and two highly conserved ASN-pro-ALA (NPA) motifs. It is strongly expressed in rodent and human spinal cord tissues and plays a key role in the pathological process after ...
