Cardiac aquaporins

Basic Research in Cardiology, 2013
Aquaporins are a group of proteins with high-selective permeability for water. A subgroup called aquaglyceroporins is also permeable to glycerol, urea and a few other solutes. Aquaporin function has mainly been studied in the brain, kidney, glands and skeletal muscle, while the information about aquaporins in the heart is still scarce.

Aquaporins mediated arsenite transport in plants: Molecular mechanisms and applications in crop improvement

Critical reviews in environmental science and technology, 2019
Arsenic (As) is a carcinogen and it is ubiquitous in the environment. Its accumulation in plants can enter the food chain, thereby causing adverse impacts on human health.

Aquaporins in Tumor

2023
Recent researches have demonstrated that aquaporins (AQPs), including water-selective channels, aquaglyceroporins and superaquaporins, are generally expressed in various tumors, such as lung, colorectal, liver, brain, breast tumors, etc. Therefore, it is imperative to study the accurate relationship between AQPs and tumor, which may provide innovative ...

Aquaporins in Edema

2023
One of the most prevalent indications of water-electrolyte imbalance is edema. Aquaporins (AQPs) are a protein family that can function as water channels. Osmoregulation and body water homeostasis are dependent on the regulation of AQPs. Human kidneys contain nine AQPs, five of which have been demonstrated to have a role in body water balance: AQP1 ...

Aquaporins in plants

Acta Physiologica, 2006
AbstractAlthough very often exposed to a rapid changing environment, plants are in general unable to evade from unfavourable conditions. Therefore, a fine tuned adaptation of physiology including the water balance appears to be of crucial importance. As a consequence a relatively large number of aquaporin genes are present in plant genomes.

Aquaporins in cancer

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2014
The aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of 13 small hydrophobic integral transmembrane water channel proteins involved in transcellular and transepithelial water movement, transport of fluid and cell migration.This review article summarizes our knowledge concerning the involvement of AQPs in tumor growth, angiogenesis and metastatic process.Tumor cells ...

Aquaporins during pregnancy

2020
Aquaporins (AQPs) are water channels proteins that facilitate water flux across cell membranes in response to osmotic gradients. Despite of the differences in the mammalian placentas, the conserved combination of AQPs expressed in placental and fetal membranes throughout gestation suggests that these proteins may be important in the regulation of fetal
