The aim of the present study was to examine the expression of aquaporin-2 (AQP2), a
member of the water channel family aquaporins (AQPs), in human uterine endometrium and …

OBJECTIVE: To study the expression of aquaporin-2 (AQP2) in human endometrium.

STUDY QUESTION How does aquaporin-3 (AQP3) affect endometrial receptivity?
SUMMARY ANSWER AQP3, which is regulated by the combination and estrogen (E2) and …

Thirteen mammalian aquaporin (AQP) water channels are known, and few of them play a
role in the mammalian reproductive system. In our earlier study, the predominance of AQP5 …

During early pregnancy in the rat there is a dramatic reduction in luminal fluid which is
associated with uterine receptivity for blastocyst implantation. This study investigates the …

Previous studies demonstrate significant roles for passive water channels (aquaporins,
AQPs) in maintaining water homeostasis in cell membranes of endometrial cells during …

Testosterone has been reported to cause a decrease in uterine fluid volume in which this
could involve the aquaporins (AQPs). This study aimed to investigate effect of testosterone …

The study investigated the effect of normal and supraphysiological (resulting from
gonadotropin-dependent ovarian stimulation) levels of estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) …

Abstract Aquaporin-1 (AQP1) is a water channel protein expressed in vascular endothelia
and involved in impaired angiogenesis in tumors. Since angiogenesis is an essential …

Background: Accumulating evidence suggests that aquaporins (AQP) can facilitate cell
migration, invasion, and proliferation in tumor development in addition to water transport …
