Aquaporins Have Regional Functions in Development of Refractive Index in the Zebrafish Eye Lens

PURPOSE: In the eye lens, cytosolic protein concentrations increase progressively from the periphery to the center, contributing to the gradient of refractive index (GRIN). Aquaporins are membrane proteins of lens fiber cells that regulate water transport and adhesion and interact with cytoskeletal...
