Aquaporin

AQP

Aquaporins (AQPs) are integral membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of water across biological membranes along an osmotic gradient. There have been 13 AQP isoforms (AQP0-AQP12) identified in humans and rodents to date. AQP0-2, 4-6 and 8 are generally considered to be exclusively water channels, whereas AQP3, 7, 9 and 10 are referred to as aquaglyceroporins, as they are also permeated by glycerol. AQPs usually adopt a tetramer conformation within the cell membrane, with each monomer consisting of a single aqueous pore that is permeable to water. The movement of water and solutes through AQP channels is a passive process that is dependent on the concentration of the transported molecule.

  • HY-N6016R
    Bacopaside II (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Bacopaside II (Standard) is the analytical standard of Bacopaside II. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Bacopaside II, an extract from the medicinal herb Bacopa monnieri, blocks the Aquaporin-1 (AQP1) water channel and impairs migration of cells that express AQP1. Bacopaside II induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

    AQP4 (205-215)
    AQP4 (205-215) is a fragment of Aquaporin-4 (AQP4). AQP4 is a neuromyelitis optica autoantigen that is upregulated and presented in B cells after engagement of CD40. AQP4 is associated with autoimmune inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), neuromyelitis optica (NMO).

    AQP4 (201-220)
    AQP4 (201-220) is an encephalitogenic epitope of AQP-4. AQP4 (201-220) can induce experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) (characterized by midline lesions in the brain, retinal pathology, and lesions at the grey matter/white matter border zone in the spinal cord). AQP-4 is a target antigen in neuromyelitis optica.

    Steviol (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Steviol (Standard) is the analytical standard of Steviol (HY-N2057). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Steviol is the main metabolite of steviol glycosides and an inhibitor of AQP2/CFTR. Steviol slows down the growth of renal cysts by inhibiting the activity of CFTR, reducing the expression of AQP2, and promoting the degradation of AQP2 and CFTR. Steviol can be used in the research of polycystic kidney disease.
