Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular cloning and expression of a member of the aquaporin family with permeability to glycerol and urea in addition to water expressed at the basolateral membrane of kidney collecting duct cells
Kenichi Ishibashi,Sei Sasaki,Kiyohide Fushimi,Shinichi Uchida,Michio Kuwahara,H Saito,Tetsushi Furukawa,K Nakajima,Yumi Yamaguchi,Takashi Gojobori +9 more
TL;DR: Although to a smaller degree, AQP3 also facilitated the transport of nonionic small solutes such as urea and glycerol, while the previously cloned water channels are permeable only to water when expressed in Xenopus oocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning and Functional Expression of a New Water Channel Abundantly Expressed in the Testis Permeable to Water, Glycerol, and Urea *

TL;DR: A new member of the aquaporin (AQP) family has been identified from rat testis that encodes a 269-amino acid protein that contained the conserved NPA motifs of MIP family proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aquaporin water channels in mammals.
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge on all mammalian AQPs and hopefully will stimulate future research in both clinical and basic fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning and functional expression of a new aquaporin (AQP9) abundantly expressed in the peripheral leukocytes permeable to water and urea, but not to glycerol.
TL;DR: A new member (AQP9) of the aquaporin family was identified from human leukocytes by homology cloning using PCR, suggesting a unique permeability character and may expand the understanding of water and small solute transport in the body.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that ECaC, present in the distal part of the nephron, is an important target for 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-mediated Ca2+ reabsorption.
