Background

Aquaporin 4, AQP4, is a 35kDa water channel protein that plays an important role in brain water homeostasis.  AQP4 is highly expressed in the end feet of astrocytes in the brain and CNS with the largest presence in the cerebellum and spinal cord grey matter.  It can also be located in epithelial cells of many organs throughout the body.  The main function of AQP4 is to provide fast water transportation and homeostatic balance throughout the central nervous system.
