The aquaporin family of water channel proteins in clinical medicine.

Medicine - 1 May 1997

Lee M D, King L S, Agre P

Abstract excerpt

The aquaporins are a family of membrane channel proteins that serve as selective pores through which water crosses the plasma membranes of many human tissues and cell types. The sites where aquaporins are expressed implicate these proteins in renal water reabsorption, cerebrospinal fluid secretion and reabsorption, generation of pulmonary secretions, aqueous humor secretion and reabsorption, lacrimation, and...
