## Abstract Aquaporinβ4 (AQP4), a water channel protein, is abundantly expressed in astrocytes and plays a key role in the development of brain edema. However, it is not clear whether AQP4 contributes to astrocytic swelling in hypoxiaβischemia (HI). To investigate the roles of AQP4 in astrocytic sw
