| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our study suggested that in some African toads, AQP6/a2U may be involved in water reabsorption from the urinary bladder. Further, our analysis of the skin of tropical clawed frogs suggested that AQP6/a2S may play an important role in the acclimation of this species to dry environments. It was also suggested that the molecular machinery for antidiuretic hormone-regulated transepithelial water transport may originate in a common ancestor to anurans and urodeles.
