1 | The aquaporin-7 (AQP7) water channel is known to be a member of the aquaglyceroporins, which allow the rapid transport of glycerol and water. | Glycerol | aquaporin 7 | Mus musculus |
2 | The aquaporin-7 (AQP7) water channel is known to be a member of the aquaglyceroporins, which allow the rapid transport of glycerol and water. | Glycerol | aquaporin 7 | Mus musculus |
3 | Although the contribution of AQP7 to the water permeability of proximal straight tubules was found to be minimal compared with that of AQP1, we identified a novel glycerol reabsorption pathway that may be important for preventing glycerol from being excreted into urine.In the male reproductive system, AQP7 is present particularly in the spermatids, as well as in the testicular and epididymal spermatozoa, suggesting that AQP7 has some role in late spermatogenesis. | Glycerol | aquaporin 7 | Mus musculus |
