Abstract
Information concerning the first aquaporin water channel in elasmobranchs was recently published 1 . However, despite this original report and other reports on aquaporin water channels in teleost fish 2 , their presence and role in elasmobranchs and other evolutionarily more ancient fish lineages, such as agnathans, remains virtually un-investigated. This study set out to begin the process of remedying this situation.
