Combined effects of aquaporin-4 and hypoxia produce age-related hydrocephalus
(Elsevier, 2018)
Aquaporin-4, present in ependymal cells, in glia limiting and abundantly in pericapillary astrocyte foot pro cesses, and aquaporin-1, expressed in choroid plexus epithelial cells, play an important role in cerebrospinal fluid ...
Article
Cellular distribution of brain aquaporins and their contribution to cerebrospinal fluid homeostasis and hydrocephalus
(MDPI, 2022)
Brain aquaporins facilitate the movement of water between the four water compartments: blood, cerebrospinal fluid, interstitial fluid, and intracellular fluid. This work analyzes the expression of the four most abundant ...

Aquaporin-4 Mediates Permanent Brain Alterations in a Mouse Model of Hypoxia-Aged Hydrocephalus
(MDPI, 2021-09-09)
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is the principal water channel in the brain being expressed in astrocytes and ependymal cells. AQP4 plays an important role in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) homeostasis, and alterations in its expression ...

Evaluation of aquaporins in the cerebrospinal fluid in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus
(PLOS, 2021)
Brain aquaporin 1 (AQP1) and AQP4 are involved in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) homeostasis and might participate in the origin of hydrocephalus. Studies have shown alterations of perivascular AQP4 expression in idiopathic ...

AQP1 and AQP4 Contribution to Cerebrospinal Fluid Homeostasis
(MDPI, 2019-02-24)
Aquaporin 1 (AQP1), expressed in epithelial cells of the choroid plexus, and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) present in ependymal cells and glia limitants have been proposed to play a significant role in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...
