Absence of aquaporin-4 in skeletal muscle alters proteins involved in bioenergetic pathways and calcium handling.
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a water channel expressed at the sarcolemma of fast-twitch skeletal muscle fibers, whose expression is altered in several forms of muscular dystrophies. However, little is known concerning the physiological role of AQP4 in skeletal muscle and its functional and structural inter...
