| Research Abstract |
Aquaporin1, first discovered as a water channel, is suggested to have multiple roles including cell migration. We previously reported that hypoxia increased Aquaporin1 in human retinal vascular endothelial cell. In this study, we have revealed that both adipose derived stem cell and ceiling culture derived proliferative adipocyte, harvested from human abdominal subcutaneous fat tissue, have Aquaporin 1. Hypoxia increases Aquaporin 1 in both types of cell. The result suggests that aquaporin 1 is related to not only a water transportation but also cell survival in hypoxic condition.
