Aquaporins—new players in cancer biology

The aquaporins (AQPs) are small, integralmembrane proteins that selectively transport water across cell plasma membranes. A subset of AQPs, the aquaglyceroporins, also transport glycerol. AQPs are strongly expressed in tumor cells of different origins, particularly aggressive tumors. Recent discover...
