1 | Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is the major water channel of the neuromuscular system, but its physiological function in both perivascular astrocytes and skeletal muscle sarcolemma is unclear. | Water | aquaporin 4 | Mus musculus |
2 | Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is the major water channel of the neuromuscular system, but its physiological function in both perivascular astrocytes and skeletal muscle sarcolemma is unclear. | Water | aquaporin 4 | Mus musculus |
3 | Sarcolemma vesicles prepared from mdx mice revealed, in parallel with AQP4 disappearance from the plasma membrane, a strong reduction in water permeability compared with wild-type mice. | Water | aquaporin 4 | Mus musculus |
4 | Altogether, these results demonstrate high AQP4-mediated water permeability of the skeletal muscle sarcolemma. | Water | aquaporin 4 | Mus musculus |
5 | Expression of sarcolemmal AQP4 together with that of vascular AQP1 may be responsible for the fast water transfer from the blood into the muscle during intense activity. | Water | aquaporin 4 | Mus musculus |
