Human and rodent erythrocytes are known to be highly permeable to glycerol. Aquaglyceroporin aquaporin (AQP)3 is the major glycerol channel in human and rat erythrocytes. However, AQP3 expression has not been observed in mouse erythrocytes. Here we report the presence of an aquaglyceroporin, AQP9, in mouse erythrocytes. AQP9 levels rise as reticulo...
