In vivo imaging of the tonoplast intrinsic protein family in Arabidopsis roots [PDF]
, 2009 Background: Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) are widely used as markers for vacuolar compartments in higher plants. Ten TIP isoforms are encoded by the Arabidopsis genome.

Transcriptome pathways unique to dehydration tolerant relatives of modern wheat [PDF]
, 2009 Among abiotic stressors, drought is a major factor responsible for dramatic yield loss in agriculture. In order to reveal differences in global expression profiles of drought tolerant and sensitive wild emmer wheat genotypes, a previously deployed shock ...

Ouabain-induced cytoplasmic vesicles and their role in cell volume maintenance [PDF]
, 2015 Cellular swelling is controlled by an active mechanism of cell volume regulation driven by a Na+/K+-dependent ATPase and by aquaporins which translocate water along the osmotic gradient. Na+/K+-pump may be blocked by ouabain, a digitalic derivative, by

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Recurrence and new cases of cancer constitute a challenging human health problem. Aquaporins (AQPs) can be expressed in many types of tumours, including the brain, breast, pancreas, colon, skin, ovaries, and lungs, and the histological grade of cancer is

Physiological Reviews, 2015 Aquaporins are membrane channels that facilitate the transport of water and small neutral molecules across biological membranes of most living organisms. In plants, aquaporins occur as multiple isoforms reflecting a high diversity of cellular localizations, transport selectivity, and regulation properties.

Plasma membrane aquaporins mediates vesicle stability in broccoli. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The use of in vitro membrane vesicles is attractive because of possible applications in therapies. Here we aimed to compare the stability and functionality of plasma membrane vesicles extracted from control and salt-treated broccoli.

Increasing leaf hydraulic conductance with transpiration rate minimizes the water potential drawdown from stem to leaf. [PDF]
, 2014 Leaf hydraulic conductance (k leaf) is a central element in the regulation of leaf water balance but the properties of k leaf remain uncertain. Here, the evidence for the following two models for k leaf in well-hydrated plants is evaluated: (i) k leaf is
