Associations between Aquaglyceroporin Gene Polymorphisms and Risk of Stroke among Patients with Hypertension [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Dysregulations ofAQP7andAQP9were found to be related to lipid metabolism abnormality, which had been provento be one of the mechanisms of stroke. However, limited epidemiological studies explore the associations betweenAQP7andAQP9and the risk

Challenges in Commercializing Biomimetic Membranes

Membranes, 2015
The discovery of selective water channel proteins—aquaporins—has prompted growing interest in using these proteins, as the building blocks for designing new types of membranes.

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

, 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,

A proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis of Oryza sativa plasma membrane and vacuolar membrane [PDF]

, 2008
Proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses of rice shoot and root tonoplast-enriched and plasma membrane-enriched membrane fractions were carried out to look at tissue-specific expression, and to identify putative regulatory sites of membrane transport ...

Aquaporin-4 and brain edema. [PDF]

, 2007
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a water-channel protein expressed strongly in the brain, predominantly in astrocyte foot processes at the borders between the brain parenchyma and major fluid compartments, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood.

Role of Operating Conditions in a Pilot Scale Investigation of Hollow Fiber Forward Osmosis Membrane Modules

Membranes, 2019
Although forward osmosis (FO) membranes have shown great promise for many applications, there are few studies attempting to create a systematization of the testing conditions at a pilot scale for FO membrane modules.

Exploring cell membrane water exchange in aquaporin-4-deficient ischemic mouse brain using diffusion-weighted MRI

European Radiology Experimental, 2021
Background Aquaporin-4 is a membrane channel protein that is highly expressed in brain astrocytes and facilitates the transport of water molecules. It has been suggested that suppression of aquaporin-4 function may be an effective treatment for reducing ...

Aquaporin-4-dependent K(+) and water transport modeled in brain extracellular space following neuroexcitation. [PDF]

, 2013
Potassium (K(+)) ions released into brain extracellular space (ECS) during neuroexcitation are efficiently taken up by astrocytes. Deletion of astrocyte water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in mice alters neuroexcitation by reducing ECS [K(+)] accumulation ...

Expression and Localization of aquaporin‐1 in Temporomandibular Joint Disc with Internal Derangement [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Internal derangement is the most frequent arthropathy affecting the temporomandibular joint, where its commonest form is anterior disc displacement with or without reduction.
