1 RESULTS: Testosterone caused MAP, AQP-1, 2, 4, 6 and 7 protein and mRNA levels in kidneys to increase while AQP-3 protein and mRNA levels in kidneys to decrease (p < 0.05). Testosterone aquaporin 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 CONCLUSIONS: Elevated expression of AQP-1, 2, 4, 6 and 7 under testosterone influence in kidneys could lead to increase H2O reabsorption which eventually lead to increase in blood pressure. Testosterone aquaporin 1 Rattus norvegicus
