Foliar Mineral Treatments for The Reduction of Melon (Cucumis melo L.) Fruit Cracking
Agronomy, 2020 Fruit cracking affects many types of crops and is a major problem since the breakage of the surface of the fruit produces high economic losses. Numerous studies have looked at different ways to prevent this, mainly in melon, but with a low success rate ...

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2014 Classically, aquaporins are divided based on pore selectivity into water specific, orthodox aquaporins and solute-facilitating aquaglyceroporins, which conduct e.g. glycerol and urea.

Aquaporins in regulation of plant protective responses to drought
Ukrainian Botanical Journal, 2021 Plasmolemma permeability is an integral indicator of the functional state of plant cells under stress. Aquaporins (AQPs), specialized transmembrane proteins that form water channels and play an important role in the adaptation of plants to adverse ...

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.

Are Aquaporins Expressed in Stomatal Complexes Promising Targets to Enhance Stomatal Dynamics?
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The opening and closure of stomata depend on the turgor pressure adjustment by the influx or efflux of ions and water in guard cells. In this process, aquaporins may play important roles by facilitating the transport of water and other small molecules ...

Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2008 In human body, there are thirteen water channels but their expression patterns are tissue specific. Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a predominantly expressed water channel in the mammalian brain and an important drug target for treatment of cerebral edema, bipolar disorder, and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy.

AQP3 and AQP5—Potential Regulators of Redox Status in Breast Cancer
Molecules, 2021 Breast cancer is still one of the leading causes of mortality in the female population. Despite the campaigns for early detection, the improvement in procedures and treatment, drastic improvement in survival rate is omitted.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated
