نبذة مختصرة : Aquaporin 1 is a water channel protein. There was little aquaporin 1 immunoreactivity in normal brain parenchyma. In astrocytomas, aquaporin 1 was expressed in microvessel endothelia and neoplastic astrocytes. In metastatic carcinomas, aquaporin 1 was present in microvessel endothelia and reactive astrocytes. Aquaporin 1 may participate in the formation of brain tumour oedema. British Journal of Cancer (2002) 21, 621–623. doi:10.1038/sj.bjc.6600512 www.bjcancer.com © 2002 Cancer Research UK
