AQP1 and open-angle glaucoma: Using established in vivo and in vitro POAG models, we demonstrated that water channel Aquaporin 1 (AQP1) is down‐regulated in trabecular meshwork (TM) cells upon ET‐1 exposure, which causes a series of glaucomatous changes, including actin fibre reorganization, collagen production, extracellular matrix deposition and contractility alteration of TM cells.
