Abstract
The presence of significant AQP9 messenger RNA and protein expression in ovine fetal membranes suggests that AQP9 may be a major water channel for intramembranous AF resorption in sheep. The cloning of ovine AQP9 and the demonstration of AQP9 expression in amnion and allantois significantly enhances our understanding of ovine AF regulation and offers the potential for therapeutic approaches for the treatment of oligohydramnios and polyhydramnios.
