Disruptions in water balance can occur in conditions such as cerebral edema, where fluid accumulation results in increased intracranial pressure (ICP). Aquaporins (AQPs) are transmembrane proteins ...
This study convincingly shows that aquaporins play a key role in blood vessel formation during zebrafish development. In particular, the paper implicates hydrostatic pressure and water flow as ...

In the present study, published in eLife, the team showed that water flow is the second mechanism for generating zebrafish lacking genes that code aquaporins—channels that facilitate the ...
"We found that when there are no aquaporins, meaning there's no water flow into endothelial cells, there is defective endothelial tip cell migration," says Phng. "And when we inhibited actin ...
