Abstract
⺠Aquaporins are protein channels that allow the movement of water and other molecules. ⺠Aquaporin-4 is the target of an autoimmune response in neuromyelitis optica. ⺠Anti-AQP4 autoantibodies have diagnostic usefulness with reasonable sensitivity and high specificity. ⺠Anti-AQP4 can be measured, although there is no standard method.
