Expression of V2R and AQPs in the renal medulla of high-fat nutritional obesity of rat

Int. j. morphol; 37 (2), 2019
Recent evidence has indicated that adipose tissue produces bioactive substances that contribute to obesity-related kidney disease, altering the renal function and structure. Eight of the AQPs are expressed in the kidney, where several of them contribute to water absorption and maintenance of body water b...

Expression of aquaporin 2, aquaporin 3 and aquaporin 4 in renal medulla of Bactrian camel ( Camelus bactrianus )

Int. j. morphol; 36 (1), 2018
SUMMARY: Aquaporins (AQPs) are members of the aquaporin water channel family that play an important role in reabsorption of water from the renal tubular fluid to concentrate urine. Using immunohistochemical staining on paraffin sections, We studied expression of AQP2, AQP3 and AQP4 in renal medulla of Ba...
