Abstract:
:The aquaporin water channels are expressed in various fluid-transporting epithelia. Physiological and genetic investigations have revealed that aquaporin channel-like intrinsic protein is expressed in numerous tissues, but its significance in water transport physiology is unclear. It has been shown that aquaporin-collecting duct is a vasopressin-responsive water channel, and that it is regulated by a membrane shuttle mechanism. Three unique models for a water pore have been presented but further studies will be required to verify them. New aquaporin members have been isolated and their discrete localization may reflect their specific physiological roles.
