Loss of Caveolin 1 is Associated With the Expression of Aquaporin 1 and Bladder Dysfunction in Mice [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Neurourology Journal, 2015
Purpose: It is suggested that caveolin and aquaporin might be closely associated with bladder signal activity. We investigated the effect of the deletion of caveolin 1, using caveolin 1 knockout mice, on the expression of aquaporin 1 in order to identify

Evaluation of Beta-Catenin Subcellular Localization and Water Channel Protein AQP1 Expression as Predictive Markers of Chemo-Resistance in Ovarian High-Grade Serous Carcinoma: Comparative Study between Preoperative Peritoneal Biopsies and Surgical Samples

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Background. Mutations of the β-catenin gene (CTNNB1), leading to aberrant immunohistochemical expression of β-catenin, represent a key mechanism of WNT/β-catenin pathway alteration in ovarian cancer.

Fragment Screening of Human Aquaporin 1 [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016
Aquaporins (AQPs) are membrane proteins that enable water transport across cellular plasma membranes in response to osmotic gradients. Phenotypic analyses have revealed important physiological roles for AQPs, and the potential for AQP water channel modulators in various disease states has been proposed.

Water Channels Aquaporin 4 and -1 Expression in Subependymoma Depends on the Localization of the Tumors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
We analyzed aquaporin 4 and -1 expression in subependymomas, benign and slow growing brain tumors WHO grade I. Ten subependymoma cases were investigated, five of the fossa inferior and five of the fossa superior.Using immunohistochemistry, we observed ...

Olfactory ensheathing glia express aquaporin 1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, 2010
AbstractOlfactory ensheathing glia (OEG) are distinct from other glia in their developmental origin, presence in both the peripheral and central nervous systems, and highly restricted location. OEG are present only in the olfactory lamina propria, olfactory nerve, and the outer two layers of the olfactory bulb, where they envelop bundles of olfactory ...

Expression and prognostic value of aquaporin 1, 3 in cervical carcinoma in women of Uygur ethnicity from Xinjiang, China. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Overexpression of several aquaporins has been reported in different types of human cancer but the role of aquaporins in carcinogenesis has not yet been clearly defined.

A refined structure of human aquaporin‐1 [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2001
A refined structure of the human water channel aquaporin‐1 is presented. The model rests on the high resolution X‐ray structure of the homologous bacterial glycerol transporter GlpF, electron crystallographic data at 3.8 Å resolution and a multiple sequence alignment of the aquaporin superfamily. The crystallographic R and free R values (36.7% and 37.8%

Lung fluid transport in aquaporin-1 and aquaporin-4 knockout mice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1999
The mammalian lung expresses water channel aquaporin-1 (AQP1) in microvascular endothelia and aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in airway epithelia. To test whether these water channels facilitate fluid movement between airspace, interstitial, and capillary compartments, we measured passive and active fluid transport in AQP1 and AQP4 knockout mice. Airspace-capillary

Challenges in Commercializing Biomimetic Membranes

open access: yesMembranes, 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.
