Aquaporin 1, Aquaporin 3 and Aquaporin 5 expression and EGFR mutation in malignant pleural mesotheliomas: an imunohistochemical and molecular study

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2017
Malignant pleural mesothelioma is a rare and fatal malignancy. This disease is, unfortunately, at its advanced stage when it is diagnosed. Survival time is usually not more than a few months.

Osmosensing, osmosignalling and inflammation: how intervertebral disc cells respond to altered osmolarity [PDF]

European Cells & Materials, 2018
Intervertebral disc (IVD) cells are naturally exposed to high osmolarity and complex mechanical loading, which drive microenvironmental osmotic changes. Age- and degeneration-induced degradation of the IVD’s extracellular matrix causes osmotic imbalance,

Congestive heart failure in rats is associated with increased expression and targeting of aquaporin-2 water channel in collecting duct [PDF]

, 1997
We tested whether severe congestive heart failure (CHF), a condition associated with excess free-water retention, is accompanied by altered regulation of the vasopressin-regulated water channel, aquaporin-2 (AQP2), in the renal collecting duct.

Aquaporins: New players in breast cancer progression and treatment response

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of small transmembrane proteins that selectively transport water and other small molecules and ions following an osmotic gradient across cell plasma membranes.

Volume changes during active shape fluctuations in cells [PDF]

, 2015
Cells modify their volume in response to changes in osmotic pressure but it is usually assumed that other active shape variations do not involve significant volume fluctuations.

Aquaporin-4 gene silencing protects injured neurons after early cerebral infarction

Neural Regeneration Research, 2015
Aquaporin-4 regulates water molecule channels and is important in tissue regulation and water transportation in the brain. Upregulation of aquaporin-4 expression is closely related to cellular edema after early cerebral infarction.

Peroxiporins Are Induced upon Oxidative Stress Insult and Are Associated with Oxidative Stress Resistance in Colon Cancer Cell Lines

Antioxidants, 2021
Oxidative stress can induce genetic instability and change cellular processes, resulting in colorectal cancer. Additionally, adaptation of oxidative defense causes therapy resistance, a major obstacle in successful cancer treatment.

Genome-wide identification, structure characterization, and expression pattern profiling of aquaporin gene family in cucumber

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Aquaporin (AQP) proteins comprise a group of membrane intrinsic proteins (MIPs) that are responsible for transporting water and other small molecules, which is crucial for plant survival under stress conditions including salt stress.
