Shortening of primary cilia length is associated with urine concentration in the kidneys [PDF]

open access: yesKidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2023
Background The primary cilium, a microtubule-based cellular organelle present in certain kidney cells, functions as a mechano-sensor to monitor fluid flow in addition to various other biological functions.

The mechanisms underlying the actions of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction pretreatment against neurological deficits after ischemic stroke in mice: The mediation of glymphatic function by aquaporin-4 and its anchoring proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Ischemic stroke (IS) has been associated with an impairment in glymphatic function. Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (XFZYD) is widely used in the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke.

Aquaporin 6 binds calmodulin in a calcium-dependent manner [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2009
Aquaporin 6 (AQP6) is an anion channel that is expressed primarily in acid secreting alpha-intercalated cells of the kidney collecting duct. In addition, AQP6 anion channel permeability is gated by low pH. Inspection of the N-terminus of AQP6 revealed a putative calmodulin binding site.

Expression and immunolocalization of aquaporin-6 (Aqp6) in the rat inner ear [PDF]

open access: yesActa Oto-Laryngologica, 2008
Since aquaporin-6 (Aqp6) protein was located in the membrane of intracellular vesicles of the stria vascularis, endolymphatic sac, and vestibule, Aqp6 might be involved in some distinct physiological function of acid-base metabolism and water balance in endolymphatic fluid homeostasis.

Structure determination of membrane-located complexes: Aquaporin 8 and YscC secretin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A biological membrane is key to the life of a cell. In all living cells a biological membrane separates a inner life and an outer environment. Plasma membrane has many functions such as responding to external signals and transmitting them into the cell,

Aquaporin-6: An intracellular vesicle water channel protein in renal epithelia [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
All characterized mammalian aquaporins (AQPs) are localized to plasma membranes where they function chiefly to mediate water transport across cells. Here we show that AQP6 is localized exclusively in intracellular membranes in renal epithelia. By using a polyclonal antibody to the C terminus of AQP6, immunoblots revealed a major 30-kDa band in ...

Stem aquaporins and surfactant-related genes are differentially expressed in two Eucalyptus species in response to water stress

open access: yesPlant Stress, 2021
The regulation of water column tension in the xylem is essential to avoid embolism formation. Plants can actively reduce the hydraulic resistance in the xylem by moving water from the neighbourhood living cell, via aquaporins.

Contrasting disease patterns in seropositive and seronegative neuromyelitis optica: A multicentre study of 175 patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: The diagnostic and pathophysiological relevance of antibodies to aquaporin-4 (AQP4-Ab) in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) has been intensively studied. However, little is known so far about the clinical impact of
