Journal ArticleDOI

Vasopressin increases water permeability of kidney collecting duct by inducing translocation of aquaporin-CD water channels to plasma membrane

TL;DR: It is concluded that vasopressin increases the water permeability of collecting duct cells by inducing a reversible translocation of AQP-CD water channels from IVs to the APM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Megalin and cubilin: multifunctional endocytic receptors

TL;DR: The ability to take up substances from the surrounding environment not only provides cells with vital nutrients, but also enables the selective transport of substances from one compartment to another.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution of the aquaporin CHIP in secretory and resorptive epithelia and capillary endothelia

TL;DR: The aquaporin CHIP (channel-forming integral membrane protein of 28 kDa), a molecular water channel, is abundant in erythrocytes and water-permeable segments of the nephron as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

The sortilin cytoplasmic tail conveys Golgi–endosome transport and binds the VHS domain of the GGA2 sorting protein

TL;DR: Evidence is provided suggesting that sortilin is the first example of a mammalian receptor targeted by the recently described GGA family of cytosolic sorting proteins, which condition the Vps10p‐mediated sorting of yeast carboxypeptidase Y.
Journal ArticleDOI

Megalin Knockout Mice as an Animal Model of Low Molecular Weight Proteinuria

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that megalin-deficient mice exhibit a tubular resorption deficiency and excrete low molecular weight plasma proteins in the urine (low molecular weight proteinuria) and patients with low molecularWeight proteinuria are shown to excrete vitamin/carrier complexes.
