Inhibition of aquaporin-3 in macrophages by a monoclonal antibody as potential therapy for liver injury

Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is a transporter of water, glycerol and hydrogen peroxide, and hydrogen peroxide mediated oxidative stress has been implicated in liver injury. Here, the authors report the development of an anti-AQP3 monoclonal antibody, which alleviates liver injury in multiple mouse models.
