Supplementary information

Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) also known as AQP-3 is a water and glycerol channel protein with a molecular weight of approximately 31 kDa. It facilitates the transport of water glycerol and other small solutes across cell membranes. AQP3 is expressed in a variety of tissues including the epidermis kidney respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract. The protein's ability to transport glycerol is especially important in maintaining skin hydration and elasticity.
Biological function summary

Aquaporin channels such as AQP3 aid in the osmotic balance and are part of the cell membrane's permeability machinery. AQP3 forms functional homotetrameric structures that integrate into the plasma membrane. Each monomer of AQP3 contains a pore for the passage of water and other small molecules. This structural arrangement allows cells to regulate fluid movement and maintain homeostasis particularly in epithelial tissues.

Pathways

AQP3 engages in the regulation of transepithelial water movement and is involved in glycerol metabolism pathways. It interacts with proteins such as AQP1 and AQP4 supporting fluid transport across various organs. In epidermal cells AQP3 plays a role in the glycerol transport pathway important for skin barrier function and wound healing processes. Its role in these pathways highlights its contribution to cellular hydration and metabolic functions.

AQP3 has links to conditions like psoriasis and kidney dysfunction. Aberrant expression of AQP3 can contribute to skin disorders by disrupting hydration balance and affecting glycerol transport. In the kidney altered AQP3 expression impacts water reabsorption and can exacerbate renal pathologies. The interaction of AQP3 with other aquaporins like AQP1 suggests a collaborative role in disease progression through shared pathways involving fluid balance anomalies.

Target data

Aquaglyceroporins form homotetrameric transmembrane channels, with each monomer independently mediating glycerol and water transport across the plasma membrane along their osmotic gradient (PubMed : 12239222, PubMed : 30420639). Could also be permeable to urea (By similarity). Also participates in cell permeability to H2O2 and H2O2-mediated signaling (PubMed : 20724658). In skin, transports glycerol to the epidermis and stratum corneum, where it maintains hydration, elasticity, and supports lipid biosynthesis for barrier repair (By similarity). In kidney, contributes to the reabsorption of water, helping the body maintain proper fluid balance (By similarity).
