Several aquaporin-type water channels are expressed in mammalian kidney and lung:
AQP1 in lung microvessels and kidney proximal tubule, thin descending limb of Henle, and …

Aquaporin‐type water channels are expressed widely in mammalian tissues, particularly in
the kidney, lung, eye and gastrointestinal tract. To define the role of aquaporins in organ …

Aquaporins (AQP) are a family of at least ten homologous water transporting proteins in
mammals that are expressed in many epithelial, endothelial and other tissues. Abnormalities …

Transgenic mice lacking renal aquaporins (AQPs), or containing mutated AQPs, have been
useful in confirming anticipated AQP functions in renal physiology and in discovering new …

Several aquaporin-type water channels are expressed in kidney: AQP1 in the proximal
tubule, thin descending limb of Henle, and vasa recta; AQP2, AQP3, and AQP4 in the …

Aquaporins (AQP) are water-transporting proteins expressed in many fluid-transporting
epithelia and endothelia. In kidney, AQP1 is expressed in plasma membranes of proximal …

At birth water is rapidly reabsorbed from the distal lung in preparation for alveolar gas
exchange. To investigate a potential role for the AQP1 water channel in development, lung …

Transgenic mouse models of aquaporin (AQP) deletion and mutation have been instructive
in elucidating the role of AQPs in renal physiology. Mice lacking AQP1 are unable to …

Abstract Water channels, aquaporins (AQPs), are a family of small integral plasma
membrane proteins that primarily transport water across the plasma membrane. There are …

Aquaporin-3 (AQP3) is a water channel expressed at the basolateral plasma membrane of
kidney collecting-duct epithelial cells. The mouse AQP3 cDNA was isolated and encodes a …
