Aquaporin-6 May Increase the Resistance to Oxidative Stress of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Cells [PDF]
Cells, 2022 Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive cancer of the pleural surface and is associated with previous asbestos exposure. The chemotherapy drug is one of the main treatments, but the median survival ranges from 8 to 14 months from diagnosis.

A region within the third extracellular loop of rat Aquaporin 6 precludes trafficking to plasma membrane in a heterologous cell line [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 The inability to over-express Aquaporin 6 (AQP6) in the plasma membrane of heterologous cells has hampered efforts to further characterize the function of this aquaglyceroporin membrane protein at atomic detail using crystallographic approaches. Using an

Molecular mechanism of anion permeation through aquaporin 6. [PDF]
Biophys JAquaporins (AQPs) are recognized as transmembrane water channels that facilitate selective water permeation through their monomeric pores. Among the AQP family, AQP6 has a unique characteristic as an anion channel, which is allosterically controlled by pH conditions and is eliminated by a single amino acid mutation.

Expression of Aquaporin-6 in Rat Retinal Ganglion Cells. [PDF]
Cell Mol Neurobiol, 2016 Several aquaporins (AQPs) have been identified to be present in the eyes, and it has been suggested that they are involved in the movement of water and small solutes. AQP6, which has low water permeability and transports mainly anions, was recently discovered in the eyes.

Decreased Aquaporin 4 and 6 mRNAs in Patients With Chronic Otitis Media With Otorrhea [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2019 Objectives Aquaporins (AQPs) are integral membrane proteins engaged in the modulation of water homeostasis, but the roles they play in chronic otitis media (COM) have not been well investigated.

IDENTIFICATION OF AQUAPORIN 7 GENE POLYMORPHISM AND IN-VIVO FERTILITY OF EGYPTIAN BUFFALO BULLS [PDF]
SPERMOVA, 2021 This work aimed to investigate the genetic polymorphism of Aquaporin 7 (AQP7) gene and its association with the in-vivo fertility of Egyptian buffalo bulls. A total of 188 fresh semen ejaculates were collected from 47 buffalo bulls and subjected to semen
