Aquaporin and Vascular Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Neuropharmacology, 2010
Aquaporins (AQP) are family of water channels found in several epithelial and endothelial cells, whose recent identification has provided insights into water transport in several tissues, including the central nervous system (CNS). Since brain edema continues to be the main cause of death from several CNS diseases, such as stroke, much of the interest ...
