Functional and Transcriptional Induction of Aquaporin-1 Gene by Hypoxia; Analysis of Promoter and Role of Hif-1α

Aquaporin-1 (AQP1) is a water channel that is highly expressed in tissues with rapid O(2) transport. It has been reported that this protein contributes to gas permeation (CO(2), NO and O(2)) through the plasma membrane. We show that hypoxia increases Aqp1 mRNA and protein levels in tissues, namely m...
