Aquaporin 1 expression in the testis, epididymis and vas deferens of postnatal ICR mice

Abstract excerpt

Aquaporin 1 (AQP1) is one of the water channels involved in water transfer and reabsorption. The results of a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) indicated that the level of AQP1 mRNA was increased in the testis and vas deferens, but decreased in the epididymis from the early postnatal period through puberty to adulthood. The results of Western blot analyses largely matched the RT-PCR...
