Gas-tight triblock-copolymer membranes are converted to CO2 permeable by insertion of plant aquaporins [PDF]
, 2012 We demonstrate that membranes consisting of certain triblock-copolymers were tight for CO2. Using a novel approach, we provide evidence for aquaporin facilitated CO2 diffusion.

Incipient balancing selection through adaptive loss of aquaporins in natural Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2010 A major goal in evolutionary biology is to understand how adaptive evolution has influenced natural variation, but identifying loci subject to positive selection has been a challenge.

Adenylate Cyclase 6 Determines cAMP Formation and Aquaporin-2 Phosphorylation and Trafficking in Inner Medulla [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2010 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) enhances water reabsorption in the renal collecting duct by vasopressin V₂ receptor (V₂R)-mediated activation of adenylyl cyclase (AC), cAMP-promoted phosphorylation of aquaporin-2 (AQP2), and increased abundance of AQP2 on the apical membrane.

The role of aquaporin-4 in optic nerve head astrocytes in experimental glaucoma.
PLoS ONE, 2021 PurposeTo study aquaporin channel expression in astrocytes of the mouse optic nerve (ON) and the response to IOP elevation in mice lacking aquaporin 4 (AQP4 null).MethodsC57BL/6 (B6) and AQP4 null mice were exposed to bead-induced IOP elevation for 3 ...

Role of Aquaporin-6 in Rat Parotid Secretory Granules
Journal of Oral Biosciences, 2011 Abstract Aquaporin-6 (AQP6) is a unique member of the family of AQP water channels and is involved in anion permeability. AQP6 was initially discovered in the cytoplasm of kidney cells as a kidney-specific AQP; however, subsequent studies revealed that the brain, inner ear, vestibular and intestines also express AQP6.
