Co-Regulated Pendrin and Aquaporin 5 Expression and Trafficking in Type-B Intercalated Cells under Potassium Depletion

Co-Regulated Pendrin and Aquaporin 5 Expression and Trafficking in Type-B Intercalated Cells under Potassium Depletion

Background: We recently reported that aquaporin 5 (AQP5), a water channel never identified in the kidney before, co-localizes with pendrin at the apical membrane of type-B intercalated cells in the kidney cortex. Since co-expression of AQP5 and pendrin in the apical membrane domain is a common featu...
