The skin and cornea are tissues that provide protective functions. Trauma and other
environmental threats often cause injuries, infections and damage to these tissues, where …

Cell migration is an essential process that underlies many physiological processes,
including the immune response, organogenesis in the embryo, and angiogenesis, as well as …

Bulk RNA sequencing of a tissue captures the gene expression profile from all cell types
combined. Single-cell RNA sequencing identifies discrete cell-signatures based on …

Dry eye is one of the most common ocular surface diseases caused by tear film instability
and ocular surface damage due to an abnormal quality or quantity of tears. Inflammatory …

Purpose: The pathogenesis of the lacrimal glands (LGs) is facilitated by inflammation
mediated by the NACHT, LRR, and NLRP3 inflammasomes in dry eye disease. This …

Purpose: This work aimed to identify differentially expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) and
elucidate their potential function in aquaporin 5 (AQP5) knockout (AQP5–/–) mice with the …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are a highly conserved group of membrane proteins that play critical
roles in water and small solute transport across epithelial and endothelial barriers. The aim …

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most predomintnt lung cancer subtype
with increasing morbidity and mortality. Previous studies have shown that aquaporin (AQP) …

Abstract Aquaporin-2–4 (AQP) are expressed in the principal cells of the renal collecting
duct (CD). Beside their role in water transport across membranes, several studies showed …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are transmembrane water channel proteins that regulate the movement
of water through the plasma membrane in various tissues including cornea. The cornea is …
