FIGURE 13.
Expression of Vasopressin receptors and AQP3 in human colon biopsy. Equal amount of proteins (20 µg) of total homogenates from human colon biopsies were blotted and probed with the indicated antibodies. (A) Immunodetection revealed that V1aR protein expression is significantly decreased in tumors compared to the normal colon mucosa. (B–C) Immunodetection revealed that V2R and AQP3 protein expression is not altered in human colon adenocarcinoma. Data are shown as mean ± S.E.M. and analyzed by Student’s t-test (**p < 0.01 vs. normal colon mucosa).
