1 AIM: To study the effects of acetazolamide and anordiol on osmotic water permeability in aquaporin 1 (AQP1)-cRNA injected Xenopus oocyte and their mechanisms. Acetazolamide aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) L homeolog Xenopus laevis
2 AIM: To study the effects of acetazolamide and anordiol on osmotic water permeability in aquaporin 1 (AQP1)-cRNA injected Xenopus oocyte and their mechanisms. Acetazolamide aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) L homeolog Xenopus laevis
3 The effects of acetazolamide and anordiol on the water transport function of AQP1 were observed by assaying the osmotic swelling of oocytes. Acetazolamide aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) L homeolog Xenopus laevis
4 RESULTS: After incubation for 15 min or 72 h, acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, equally reduced the water permeability of AQP1-cRNA injected oocyte in a dose-dependent manner. Acetazolamide aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) L homeolog Xenopus laevis
5 CONCLUSION: Both acetazolamide and anordiol inhibited the osmotic water permeability of AQP1-cRNA injected oocyte, but their mechanisms were different. Acetazolamide aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) L homeolog Xenopus laevis
6 Acetazolamide functionally inhibited the osmotic water permeability of AQP1, whereas anordiol primarily decreased the amount of AQP1 protein in the oocyte membrane. Acetazolamide aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) L homeolog Xenopus laevis
