Involvement of Aquaporin 9 in Osteoclast Differentiation [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2006 Aquaporins (water channels) selectively enhance water permeability of membranes. Since osteoclast differentiation includes a dramatic increase in cell volume, we hypothesize that aquaporin(s) is/are critical for the formation of the multinucleated osteoclast from its mononuclear precursor.

Potential roles of aquaporin 9 in the pathogenesis of endometriosis [PDF]
MHR: Basic science of reproductive medicine, 2019 AbstractAquaporins (AQPs) are involved in cell migration, proliferation and carcinogenesis in tumor development and physiologic inflammatory processes, but their associations with endometriosis have not been fully evaluated. In this study, tissue samples were obtained from women undergoing laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis and other benign ...

Projection Map of Aquaporin-9 at 7 Å Resolution [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2007 Aquaporin-9, an aquaglyceroporin present in diverse tissues, is unique among aquaporins because it is not only permeable to water, urea and glycerol, but also allows passage of larger uncharged solutes. Single particle analysis of negatively stained recombinant rat aquaporin-9 revealed a particle size characteristic of the tetrameric organization of ...
