摘要

Although the functionality of the lens water channels aquaporin 1 (AQP1; epithelium) and AQPO (fiber cells) is well established, less is known about the role of AQP5 in the lens. Since in other tissues AQP5 functions as a regulated water channel with a water permeability (P_(h_2o)) some 20 times higher than AQPO, AQP5 could function to modulate P_(h_2o) in lens fiber cells. To test this possibility, a fluorescence dye dilution assay was used to calculate the relative P_(h_2o) of epithelial cells and fiber membrane vesicles isolated from either the mouse or rat lens, in the absence and presence of HgCl_2, an inhibitor of AQP1 and AQP5. Immunolabeling of lens sections and fiber membrane vesicles from mouse and rat lenses revealed differences in the subcellular distributions of AQP5 in the outer cortex between species, with AQP5 being predominantly membranous in the mouse but predominantly cytoplas-mic in the rat. In contrast, AQPO labeling was always membranous in both species. This species-specific heterogeneity in AQP5 membrane localization was mirrored in measurements of P_(h_2o), with only fiber membrane vesicles isolated from the mouse lens, exhibiting a significant Hg~(2+)-sensitive contribution to P_(h_2o). When rat lenses were first organ cultured, immunolabeling revealed an insertion of AQP5 into cortical fiber cells, and a significant increase in Hg~(2+)-sensitive P_(h_2o) was detected in membrane vesicles. Our results show that AQP5 forms functional water channels in the rodent lens, and they suggest that dynamic membrane insertion of AQP5 may regulate water fluxes in the lens by modulating P_(h_2o) in the outer cortex.
