Differential Upregulation of Aquaporin-4 mRNA Expression in Reactive Astrocytes after Brain Injury: Potential Role in Brain Edema
Astrocytes and aquaporin-4 (AQP4) play a significant role in brain ion homeostasis. Consequently the regulation of AQP4 mRNA in the CNS after different neurological insults was of interest. A single intrastriatal injection of ringer or quinolinic acid strongly induced AQP4 mRNA in the striatum, spec...
