“…Since some members of the AQP family facilitate the diffusion of H 2 O 2 , they are also named peroxiporins [ 154 , 155 , 156 , 157 ] and their function has been related to both volume regulation and ROS elimination [ 96 ]. The regulation of H 2 O 2 permeation can also contribute to a resistant phenotype of tumors and peroxiporin activity could modify the cellular antioxidative defense system, thereby contributing to oxidative stress resistance [ 158 ]. AQP1, AQP3, AQP5, AQP8, AQP9, and AQP11 expression was reported in human tumors, and in some cases correlated with tumor grade, opening new diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities [ 56 , 101 , 159 , 160 , 161 , 162 , 163 , 164 , 165 , 166 , 167 , 168 ].…”
