and in water secretion from the brain. As enteric glial cells were found to share several similarities with astrocytes, we hypothesized that enteric glia might also contain aquaporin ‐4. We used ...
— Aquaporins are transmembrane proteins. Their main function in the nervous system is water transport . Furthermore, some of them are capable of transporting glycerol, urea, and certain gases ...
— that transport glycerol as well as water , and might therefore participate in energy metabolism. Aqp4 is the predominant and best-characterized aquaporin in brain, and is principally located in the plasma ...
Aquaporins (AQP) constitute an evolutionarily conserved family of integral membrane water transport channel proteins. Previous studies indicate that AQP1 is expressed exclusively in the choroid ...
Abstract: Emerging evidence suggests that aquaporin (AQP) 4 water channels play an important role in water homeostasis in the brain. These water channels are most abundant in the cell membrane ...
Brain water transport is poorly understood at the molecular level, and marked changes occur during brain development. As the aquaporin ‐4 (AQP4) water channel protein is abundant in brain ...
to these fluid-based disorders. Water transport in and out of cells is achieved by specialized membrane channels, with most rapid water transport regulated by transmembrane water channels known as aquaporins (AQPs ...
. Indeed, alterations in distinct astrocyte membrane channels, receptors, and transporters have all been associated with the epileptic state. This review focuses on the potential roles of the glial water ...
