Aquaporins are a family of water channels considered to play an important role in fluid transport across plasma membranes. Among the reported isoforms, relatively little is known about the functional role of aquaporin 8 (AQP8), and there are no cell lines known to express the AQP8 protein. We report

## Abstract The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the expression and regulation of the Lโcystine transporter, system x~c~^โ^, in Mรผller cells. In this study, newly developed conditionally immortalized rat Mรผller cell lines (TRโMUL) from transgenic rats harboring the temperatureโsensitiv
To establish the differentiation potential of progenitor cells, non-parenchymal epithelial cells from the F344 rat liver (FNRL cells) were studied. These cells reacted with the OV-6 antibody marker of oval cells, but were negative for hepatocyte markers (albumin, transferrin, glycogen, glucose-6-pho
Increases in the mRNA levels of two neuroglial markers, glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2; GS) and glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8; GPDH), were observed in hydrocortisone-treated cultures of astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, respectively, and in C6 cells by Northern blot analysis and in si
During vascular development, endothelial cells are exposed to a variety of rapidly changing factors, including fluctuating oxygen levels. We have previously shown that ankyrin repeat and suppressor of cytokine signalling box protein 4 (ASB4) is the most highly differentially expressed gene in the va
