Anti-AQP4: Polyclonal Aquaporin 4 Antibody |
 |
BACKGROUND Aquaporin 4 (AQP4) is a predominant water channel protein in mammalian brains, which is abundantly expressed in astrocytes throughout the central nervous system, particularly at the blood-brain and brain-cerebrospinal fluid barriers.1 AQP4 mediates bidirectional transport of water across astrocytes. Phenotype analysis of transgenic mice lacking AQP4 has provided compelling evidence for involvement of AQP4 in cerebral water balance, astrocyte migration, and neural signal transduction.2 AQP4 manipulation may serve as a novel therapeutic strategy for a variety of cerebral disorders including stroke, tumor, infection, hydrocephalus, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury.3
