The deletion of AQP4 and TRPV4 affects astrocyte swelling/volume recovery in response to ischemia-mimicking pathologies by Zuzana Hermanova, Zuzana Hermanova, Lukas Valihrach, Lukas Valihrach, Jan Kriska, Mansi Maheta, Jana Tureckova, Mikael Kubista, Miroslava Anderova

“…IntroductionAstrocytic Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channels, together with Aquaporin 4 (AQP4), are suspected to be the key players in cellular volume regulation, and therefore may affect the development and severity of cerebral edema during ischemia. In this study, we examined astrocytic swelling/volume recovery in mice with TRPV4 and/or AQP4 deletion in response to in vitro ischemic conditions, to determine how the deletion of these channels can affect the development of cerebral edema.MethodsWe used three models of ischemia-related pathological conditions: hypoosmotic stress, hyperkalemia, and oxygenglucose deprivation (OGD), and observed their effect on astrocyte volume changes in acute brain slices of Aqp4–/–, Trpv4–/– and double knockouts. …”
