TRPV4 Contributes to Resting Membrane Potential in Retinal Müller Cells: Implications in Cell Volume Regulation [PDF]
Neural activity alters osmotic gradients favoring cell swelling in retinal Müller cells. This swelling is followed by a regulatory volume decrease (RVD), partially mediated by an efflux of KCl and water. The transient receptor potential channel 4 (TRPV4),

Differential glymphatic dysfunction and memory correlation in temporal lobe epilepsy subtypes
Abstract Objective This study aims to evaluate the glymphatic system (GS) in different temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) subtypes using diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS) and to explore its correlation with clinical factors and memory performance.

To investigate the effects of different processing methods of Sojae Semen Praeparartum (SSP) on constipation, we prepared SSP through fermentation using Rhizopus chinensis and Bacillus sp. DU‐106 as starter cultures, and examined its laxative effects and mechanisms in loperamide‐induced constipated Sprague‐Dawley (SD) rats.

Aquaporin Protein-Protein Interactions
Aquaporins are tetrameric membrane-bound channels that facilitate transport of water and other small solutes across cell membranes. In eukaryotes, they are frequently regulated by gating or trafficking, allowing for the cell to control membrane ...

Neuronal THY1 Signaling Maintains Astrocytes in a Quiescent State
THY1‐bearing neurons keep astrocytes in a quiescent state via the interaction with ITGB1. Depletion of THY1 supports the development of a partially activated astrocyte phenotype. Neuronal THY1 is involved in the maintenance and restoration of tissue homeostasis in the brain. ABSTRACT THY1 is a cell surface protein of mature neurons.

Pancreatic Aquaporin-7: A Novel Target for Anti-diabetic Drugs?
Aquaporins comprise a family of 13 members of water channels (AQP0-12) that facilitate a rapid transport of water across cell membranes. In some cases, these pores are also permeated by small solutes, particularly glycerol, urea or nitric oxide, among ...

The Impact of Aquaporin‐4 Deletion on K+‐Induced Astrocytic Swelling Depends on K+ Concentration
Swelling due to 10 mM [K+]o is reduced in astrocytes devoid of aquaporin‐4, while there is no difference between genotypes when exposed to 50 mM [K+]o. The two [K+]o concentrations induce distinct astrocytic Ca2+ signaling in the two genotypes pointing to a possible mechanistic basis of the differences observed. ABSTRACT Astrocytes swell in response to

A case report: Diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis
We reported a case of idiopathic hypertrophic dura meningitis diagnosed in our hospital. The patient repeatedly suffered from headaches, followed by blurred vision in the right eye. During this period, multiple sclerosis was considered for diagnosis, and it improved after hormone treatment.

Research progress of neurovascular units involved in ischemic stroke
The brain receives less blood when an ischemic stroke develops, which damages neurons and leads to an increased release of Pro‐inflammatory mediators that activate neurovascular unit (NVU). When the tight junctions are broken and the basement membrane is disrupted by matrix metalloproteinases produced by active endothelial and pericellular cells ...

Roles of Plasmalemma Aquaporin Gene StPIP1 in Enhancing Drought Tolerance in Potato
Survival and mortality of plants in response to severe drought may be related to carbon starvation, but little is known about how plasma membrane intrinsic proteins may help alleviate the drought-induced damage.
