Neural crest cells bulldoze through the microenvironment using Aquaporin-1 to stabilize filopodia by McLennan, R, McKinney, M, Teddy, J, Morrison, J, Kasemeier-Kulesa, J, Ridenour, D, Manthe, C, Giniunaite, R, Robinson, M, Baker, R, Maini, P, Kulesea, P

“…Here, we use high-resolution microscopy, computational modeling, and in vitro and in vivo cell invasion assays to investigate the function of Aquaporin 1 (AQP-1) signaling. We find that migrating lead cranial neural crest cells express AQP-1 mRNA and protein, implicating a biological role for water channel protein function during invasion. …”

Novel Anti-Neuronal Antibodies in Neuromyelitis Optica Patients with or without Aquaporin-4 Antibodies by Cavus, F, Ugurel, E, Sehitoglu, E, Woodhall, M, Waters, P, Ulusoy, C, Turan, S, Vural, B, Turkoglu, R, Eraksoy, M, Vincent, A, Akman-Demir, G, Tuzun, E

What do aquaporin knockout studies tell us about fluid transport in epithelia? by Maclaren, O, Sneyd, J, Crampin, E

“…The investigation of near-isosmotic water transport in epithelia goes back over 100 years; however, debates over mechanism and pathway remain. Aquaporin (AQP) knockouts have been used by various research groups to test the hypothesis of an osmotic mechanism as well as to explore the paracellular versus transcellular pathway debate. …”

Serologic diagnosis of NMO: a multicenter comparison of aquaporin-4-IgG assays. by Waters, P, McKeon, A, Leite, M, Rajasekharan, S, Lennon, V, Villalobos, A, Palace, J, Mandrekar, J, Vincent, A, Bar-Or, A, Pittock, S

“… OBJECTIVES: Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) immunoglobulin G (IgG) (aquaporin-4 [AQP4] IgG) is highly specific for NMO and related disorders, and autoantibody detection has become an essential investigation in patients with demyelinating disease. …”

Development of an Aquaporin-4 Orthogonal Array of Particle-Based ELISA for Neuromyelitis Optica Autoantibodies Detection. by Francesco Pisani, Paolo Settanni, Stefania Rosito, Maria Grazia Mola, Raffaele Iorio, Carla Tortorella, Maddalena Ruggieri, Maria Trojano, Maria Svelto, Antonio Frigeri, Grazia Paola Nicchia

“…Serological markers of Nuromyelitis Optica (NMO), an autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system, are autoantibodies targeting the astrocytic water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP4). We have previously demonstrated that the main epitopes for these autoantibodies (AQP4-IgG) are generated by the supramolecular arrangement of AQP4 tetramers into an Orthogonal Array of Particles (OAPs). …”
