What is aquaporin expression?
What is aquaporin expression? Aquaporins (AQPs), membrane-inserted water channel proteins, play a highly important role in the reabsorption of water from the renal tubular fluid. This is the first documentation of altered AQP expression in human renal disease. The significance of the increased AQP-1 expression requires further studies. Where is aquaporin 3 found? principal collecting duct cells Aquaporin 3 is the protein product of the human AQP3 gene. It is found in the basolateral cell membrane of principal collecting duct cells and provides a pathway for water to exit these cells. What is the gene code for aquaporin? The AQP2...
