From finch to fish to man: Role of aquaporins in body fluid and brain water regulation
Section snippets
Unifying hypothesis of body fluid volume regulation
Body fluid volume regulation by the kidney relies on the complex interaction of numerous factors (Table 1). Clinically maladaptive responses can occur when extrarenal factors override the “innate wisdom” of the kidney (Starling, 1909). For example, in patients with cardiac failure or liver disease and in pregnant women, the normal kidney continues to retain sodium and water despite expanded blood, plasma, and extracellular fluid (ECF) volumes. Such fluid retention may ultimately lead to

Renal osteodystrophy: A historical review of its origins and conceptual evolution
2022, Bone ReportsCitation Excerpt :Pertinent parallel evolutionary changes as amphibians evolved in the Devonian period were the rudiments of a respiratory system in the lungfish, known in Swahili as Kamongo, that Homer Smith sought, imported, studied, and narrated (Smith, 1932). It was also during this stretch of time when osmoregulation and excretion of nitrogenous products of migrating predatory fish led to the appearance of the beginnings of the vascular tufts of the glomerulus for the excretion of waste products by filtration, followed by increasing refinements in tubular regulatory function and the loop of Henle necessary for water, electrolyte, calcium, and phosphate regulation when life on land necessitated the preservation of water and scarce elements necessary to maintain homeostasis (Bochenbauer and Keita, 2021; Keogh et al., 2021; Koonan, 2012; Natochin, 1996; Schrier et al., 2004). As fundamental for survival as those evolutionary genetic transmutations of bone metabolism were, they went unknown until the past few decades.

2007, MedicineWater and Sodium Retention in Edematous Disorders: Role of Vasopressin and Aldosterone
2006, American Journal of MedicineCitation Excerpt :When the vasopressin V2 receptors (V2Rs) on the collecting duct are stimulated, the resultant activation of the adenylate-cyclic AMP pathway increases aquaporin-2 (AQP2) water channel trafficking to the apical membrane of the collecting duct. This sequence of events leads to an increase in water reabsorption and can cause hyponatremia in edematous disorders.19–22 The collecting duct in the distal nephron is also the site of aldosterone action and the natriuretic peptides.
