| aquagenic pruritus |
pruritus and other skin sensations, such as burning, lasting for 30 minutes to two hours, after contact with water, without the overt skin changes seen in aquagenic urticaria. The etiology is usually unknown, although it is sometimes seen accompanying polycythemia vera and in other cases it may be familial. A similar condition is seen in elderly women but lasts only 10 to 20 minutes and is relieved by emollients.

Aquaporins are a class of integral membrane proteins that form pores in the membrane of biological cells and selectively conduct water molecules in and out, while preventing the passage of ions and other solutes. Also known as water channels, they are each composed of four (typically) identical subunit proteins. Water molecules traverse the narrowest portion of the channel single file. The presence of water channels increases the permitivity of membranes to water by as much as ten fold. ...
