Aquaporins facilitate the passive transport of water, solutes, or ions across biological
membranes. They are implicated in diverse pathologies including brain edema following …

Over the years, my colleagues and I have come to realise that the likelihood of
pharmaceutical drugs being able to diffuse through whatever unhindered phospholipid …

Abstract Aquaglyceroporin 7 (AQP7) facilitates glycerol flux across the plasma membrane
with a critical physiological role linked to metabolism, obesity, and associated diseases …

Many of the world's most important food crops such as rice, barley and maize accumulate
silicon (Si) to high levels, resulting in better plant growth and crop yields. The first step in Si …

Xenopus oocytes expressing human aquaporin-7 (AQP7) exhibit greater osmotic water
permeability and 3H-glycerol uptake vs. those expressing the bacterial glycerol facilitator …

Aquaglyceroporins, a sub-class of aquaporins that facilitate the diffusion of water, glycerol
and other small uncharged solutes across cell membranes, have been recognized for their …

Evolution turned aquaporins (AQPs) into the most efficient facilitators of passive water flow
through cell membranes at no expense of solute discrimination. In spite of a plethora of …

Aquaporins (AQPs) and vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R) play a crucial role in urine
excretion and are widely used to explore novel diuretics. In this study, three …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are highly conserved small transmembrane proteins that facilitate the
transport of water and small solutes across cell membranes. Aquaglyceroporin 7 (AQP7), a …

Aquaporin water channels facilitate the bi-directional flow of water and small, neutral solutes
down an osmotic gradient in all kingdoms of life. Over the last two decades, the availability of …
