Aquaporin-1 Mediated Fluid Movement in Ocular Tissues

Aquaporin-1 Mediated Fluid Movement in Ocular Tissues

Aquaporin proteins significantly increase water permeability across tissues and cell membranes. Ocular tissues, including the trabecular meshwork (TM) and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), are especially reliant on aquaporin mediated water movement for ocular homeostasis. Even though bulk fluid m...
