Aquaporin 1 (AQP1) Expression in Healthy Dog Tears [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of thirteen membrane proteins that play an essential role in the transport of fluids across the cell plasma membrane. Recently, the expression of AQPs in different ocular tissues and their involvement in the pathophysiology

Accumulation of Astrocytic Aquaporin 4 and Aquaporin 1 in Prion Protein Plaques [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Neuropathology & Experimental Neurology, 2020
Abstract Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker (GSS) disease with P102L mutation and familial Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) with V180I mutation are 2 major hereditary prion diseases in Japan. GSS and some familial CJD [V180I] exhibit characteristic prion protein (PrP) plaques. Overexpression of the astrocytic water channel proteins aquaporin (

Aquaporin-1 and Aquaporin-3 Expressions in the Intervertebral Disc of Rats with Aging

open access: yesBalkan Medical Journal, 2012
Objective: The intervertebral disc (IVD) undergoes biochemical and morphologic degenerative changes during the process of aging. Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of water channel proteins that facilitate water and small solute movement in tissues and may ...

Characterization of three vasopressin receptor 2 variants: an apparent polymorphism (V266A) and two loss-of-function mutations (R181C and M311V). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is released from the posterior pituitary and controls water homeostasis. AVP binding to vasopressin V2 receptors (V2Rs) located on kidney collecting duct epithelial cells triggers activation of Gs proteins, leading to increased

Aquaporin-1 and aquaporin-9 gene variations in sudden infant death syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Legal Medicine, 2021
AbstractSeveral studies have indicated that a vulnerability in the development and regulation of brain function is involved in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The aim of this study was to investigate the genes encoding the brain aquaporins (AQPs) AQP1 and AQP9 in SIDS.

Vascular Inflammation Is Associated with Loss of Aquaporin 1 Expression on Endothelial Cells and Increased Fluid Leakage in SARS-CoV-2 Infected Golden Syrian Hamsters

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Vascular changes represent a characteristic feature of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection leading to a breakdown of the vascular barrier and subsequent edema formation.

Recombinant production of human Aquaporin-1 to an exceptional high membrane density in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In the present paper we explored the capacity of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as host for heterologous expression of human Aquaporin-1. Aquaporin-1 cDNA was expressed from a galactose inducible promoter situated on a plasmid with an adjustable copy ...

Does CO2 Permeate through Aquaporin-1? [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2006
Aquaporins facilitate water permeation across biological membranes. Additionally, glycerol and other small neutral solutes are permeated by related aquaglyceroporins. The role of aquaporins in gas permeation has been a long-standing and controversially discussed issue. We present an extensive set of atomistic molecular dynamics simulations that address
