Renal aquaporin (AQP)2 levels in taurine-treated and taurine-deficient rats. The 25 kD and the 30-37 kD bands represent non-glycosylated and glycosylated forms of AQP2, respectively. Protein expression is expressed as percent of the control group. Data are means ± SEM (n=3 animals/groups). * p<0.05 compared to the other two groups.
