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 ...

Kidney International, 1996 Aquaporins (AQPs) are a newly recognized family of transmembrane proteins that function as molecular water channels. At least four aquaporins are expressed in the kidney where they mediate rapid water transport across water-permeable epithelia and play critical roles in urinary concentrating and diluting processes.

Aquaporins in the kidney: physiology and pathophysiology.
AJP - Renal Physiology, 2019 The kidney is the central organ involved in maintaining water and sodium balance. In human kidneys, nine aquaporins (AQPs) including AQP1-8 and AQP11 have been found and are differentially expressed along renal tubules and collecting ducts with distinct ...

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

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

Plant, Cell and Environment, 2019 Studies have suggested that increased root hydraulic conductivity in mycorrhizal roots could be the result of increased cell-to-cell water flux via aquaporins.

Data-mining the FlyAtlas online resource to identify core functional motifs across transporting epithelia [PDF]
, 2013 <p>Background Comparative analysis of tissue-specific transcriptomes is a powerful technique to uncover tissue functions. Our FlyAtlas.org provides authoritative gene expression levels for multiple tissues of Drosophila melanogaster (1).

Cells, 2020 Aquaporins constitute a group of water channel proteins located in numerous cell types. These are pore-forming transmembrane proteins, which mediate the specific passage of water molecules through membranes.
