As the prototype of a family of transcription factors, Sp1 has been extensively studied and
widely reported for its role in gene regulation. The first evidence of Sp1 phosphorylation was …

Pulmonary oedema is a life-threatening condition that frequently leads to acute respiratory
failure. From a physiological perspective, pulmonary oedema develops either because of an …

Aquaporin (AQP) water channels provide a major pathway for osmotically driven water
movement across epithelial and microvascular barriers in the lung. We used mice deficient …

Previous studies in intact lung suggest that CFTR may play a role in cAMP-regulated fluid
transport from the distal air spaces of the lung. However, the potential contribution of …

The secretion of uterine luminal fluid initially provides a transport and support medium for
spermatozoa and unimplanted embryos, while the absorption of uterine luminal fluid in early …

Electrolyte transport across the adult alveolar epithelium plays an important role in
