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.

Aquaporins (AQP) working as membrane channels facilitated water transport, play vital roles in various physiological progress including cell migration, energy metabolism, inflammation, etc. They are quite important drug targets, but elusive for discovery due to their undruggable properties.

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 ...

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.

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.

Increased Expression of Aquaporin-1 and Aquaporin-3 in Pterygium
Cornea, 2013Recent studies have shown that aquaporins (AQPs) play an important role in proliferating tumor microvessels and angiogenesis. In this study, the authors investigated the expression of aquaporin-1 (AQP1) and aquaporin-3 (AQP3) in pterygial and normal conjunctival tissues.Fifteen patients with pterygium were enrolled in the study.
