Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - AQP3 is a transmembrane protein with a single transmembrane domain and a hydrophilic extracellular domain. - It is expressed in high levels in epithelial cells, where it is thought to be involved in maintaining water balance and preventing the leakage of fluid and solute across the cell membrane. - AQP3 is a key regulator of renal water homeostasis, and its expression is regulated by various factors, including angiotensin II, vasopressin, and other hormones. **Pathways and functions:** - AQP3 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including: - Aquaporin-mediated transport of water and small molecules across cell membranes - Glycerol channel activity, which is involved in the transport of glycerol between cells and tissues - Glycerol transmembrane transport, which is involved in the transport of glycerol between blood and cells - Identical protein binding, which is involved in the binding of specific proteins to aquaporins - Passive transport by aquaporins, which is a non-specific mechanism for the transport of water across cell membranes - Positive regulation of immune system process, which is involved in the regulation of immune responses - Protein binding, which is involved in the binding of proteins to aquaporins - Renal water homeostasis, which is the regulation of water balance in the body - Response to ischemia, which is the regulation of water balance in the brain and other organs during periods of ischemia **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the AQP3 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including: - Renal failure - Diabetes - Hypertension - Hypertension-induced heart failure - Stroke - Eye diseases - Skin diseases - Cancer AQP3 is a promising target for the treatment of a variety of human diseases. By targeting AQP3, it may be possible to inhibit water loss and improve tissue function in diseases that are characterized by fluid and solute leakage.
