Water is the major component of cells and tissues. The fetal body consists of about 70-90% water and its fluid balance is dependent on the mother. In fact, abortion, premature birth, amniotic fluid volume abnormality, malformation and fetal growth restrictions might result when the homeostasis of the maternal-fetal fluid exchange is disrupted.

The skin is the largest organ of our body and plays a protective role against the external environment. The skin functions as a mechanical and water permeability barrier, assisting with thermoregulation and defending our body against a variety of stresses such as ultraviolet radiation, microbial infection, physical injuries, and chemical hazards.

The major part of the eye consists of water. Continuous movement of water and ions between the ocular compartments and to the systemic circulation is pivotal for many physiological functions in the eye. The movement of water facilitates removal of the many metabolic products of corneal-, ciliary body-, lens-, and retinal metabolism, while maintaining ...

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1998
The past year has brought significant advances in our understanding of the involvement of aquaporins in the regulation of water balance. Besides the identification of new mammalian aquaporins, highlights include the progress in our understanding of their cell-biological regulation and their roles in physiology and pathophysiology as deduced from ...

The prime function of aquaporins (AQPs) is generally believed to be that of increasing water flow rates across membranes by raising their osmotic or hydraulic permeability. In addition, this applies to other small solutes of physiological importance.

Aquaporins are ubiquitous membrane channel proteins that facilitate and regulate the permeation of water across biological membranes. Aquaporins are members of the MIP family and some of them seem to be also able to transport other molecules such as urea or glycerol.

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2006
An acceleration in the rate at which new aquaporin structures are determined means that structural models are now available for mammalian AQP0, AQP1, AQP2 and AQP4, bacterial GlpF, AqpM and AQPZ, and the plant SoPIP2;1. With an apparent consensus emerging concerning the mechanism of selective water transport and proton extrusion, emphasis has shifted ...
