Our study suggests that two commercially available molecules should be used with care when investigating the AQP4 dependence of biological mechanisms.

Our lab's first Biorxiv deposition is live!
We show that two commercially-available "aquaporin-4 inhibitors" do not inhibit aquaporin-4 as previously described.

This is (bluesky-less) Lucas Unger's first manuscript from his PhD work, and a big team effort involving members of #TeamAQP across the world. We are keen to get feedback on our study, and urge caution to researchers using AER-270 or TGN-020 in their work!

It is great to see this work out and we look forward to discussions on how the field should scrutinise historical data on AQP4 in brain fluid homeostasis and glymphatic flow. The take-home message is to please use these molecules with care!

Wow! 🥳 Starter Pack 1 on membrane proteins, lipids and transport processes has maxed out, so I made a 2nd one to reunite our community!
Please share widely and reach out if you love lipids and the proteins that frolick at and in the membrane! 🧪

Delighted that our MIBTP Landscape Award has been funded. I'd be very grateful for any sharing of this, it's a great programme and I'm not just saying that as I'm one of the directors 🤣.

Great idea. I just did this, too!
Alright! 👍 I’m loving this!
Academics wanting to 'verify' their Bluesky profile as genuine might give an ORCID identifier in their profile and link back to their Bluesky profile from ORCID.
