| Research Abstract |
The membrane pore proteins, aquaporins(AQPs), facilitate the osmotically driven passage of water and, in some instances, small solutes. AQP4 plays important roles in maintaining brain homeostasis and formation of brain edema. However, little is known about function of AQP9 in brain edema. The expression of AQP9 is regulated by the p38 MAPK pathway. Hypoxia evoked a marked decrease in the expression levels of AQP9 and in astrocytes in vitro subsequent reoxygenation elicited the restoration of the expression of AQP9 to their basal levels. These results suggest that AQP9 may be one of the candidates for inducing the intracranial edema in the CNS after ischemia injury.
