The distribution and protein expressions of AQP-1 on the rats′ peritonea were measured with immunohistochemistry assay, and the expressions of APQ-1 mRNA were tested with relative GAPDH quantitative RT-PCR.

The changes of AQP-1 Expressions on peritoneal mesothelial cells which were fewer than those on the endothelial cells may be few relations to ascites form.展开更多
