AQP1 and AQP4 Contribution to Cerebrospinal Fluid Homeostasis

Aquaporin 1 (AQP1), expressed in epithelial cells of the choroid plexus, and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) present in ependymal cells and glia limitants have been proposed to play a significant role in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production and homeostasis. However, the specific contribution of each water channe...

To do that, we carried out records of intraventricular pressure and CSF outflow, and evaluated ventricular volume by magnetic resonance imaging in AQP1−/−, AQP4−/−, double AQP1−/−-AQP4−/− knock out and wild type mice controls. The analysis performed clearly showed that both AQPs have a significant participation in the CSF production, and additionally revealed that the double AQP1-AQP4 mutation alters the CSF drainage and the ventricular compliance. The data reported here indicate a significant extra-choroidal CSF formation mediated by AQP4, supporting the idea of an important and constant CSF production/absorption process, sustained by efflux/influx of water between brain capillaries and interstitial fluid. Moreover, our results suggest the participation of AQPs in structural functions also related with CSF homeostasis such as the distensibility capacity of the ventricular system.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad PI12/01882Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad PI16/00493Instituto de Salud Carlos IIIEuropean Regional Development Fund (FEDER)Junta de AndalucíaMDPIFisiología Médica y BiofísicaCTS517: Fisiologia MolecularCTS1047: Fisiopatología Asociada a las Acuaporinas2019info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/11441/89042https://doi.org/10.3390/cells8020197reponame:idUS.
