Abstract
Aquaporin is a type of protein that efficiently transports water molecules and has found extensive applications in the biomedical field. This article reviews the advantages and potential applications of water channel proteins in biomedicine. Firstly, the distribution and function of water channel proteins on the cell membrane play an important role in maintaining water balance inside and outside the cell, as well as regulating the cellular and extracellular environ-ments. Secondly, the applications of aquaporins in biomedicine include drug delivery, water molecule transport imaging, and other aspects. Finally, the future development direction of aquaporins in biomedicine was discussed, including the research and development of new drugs based on aquaporins, as well as the application of aquaporins in disease diagnosis and treatment. In summary, water channel proteins have broad applications in the biomedical field, which will bring new opportunities and challenges for their development.
