Abstract：
INTRODUCTION:The aquaporins (AQP1, 3, 8, 9 and 11) are known to be expressed, and involved in the transport of water and small molecules through fetal membranes. To exert these crucial functions, these AQPs have to be finely regulated. All-trans-retinoic acid (atRA) was previously found to regulate some genes in this environment, raising the question of whether these AQPs were regulated by atRA. METHODS:Explants, and primary and established amniotic cells were cultured to determine which AQP were transcriptionally modified by atRA, using the qRT-PCR strategy. Immunohistochemistry and glycerol uptake tests were used to determine the impact of atRA on AQP protein expression and function. Specific agonists of retinoic acid receptors were used to identify the molecular mechanisms of AQP promoter activation. A classical gene AQP promoter study was also used to identify DR5 retinoic acid receptor elements (RAREs). RESULTS:Beyond these AQPs, only one specific atRA-dependent increase in AQP3 transcripts and proteins level was established in amnion (not in chorion) and in related primary and established cells. We found three DR5-RAREs essential for inducing this transcriptional AQP3 through RARα. This transactivation of the AQP3 coding gene was functionally related to an increase of AQP3 permeability tests by a glycerol uptake assay. DISCUSSION:Our data support an atRA regulatory model of AQP3 expression leading to an increased cellular permeability in the epithelial amniotic environment. We cast new light on AF regulation in healthy pregnancy, and advance new hypotheses for obstetrical complications linked to impairment of the retinoic signaling pathway.
