Molecular mechanism of AQP3 in cholelithiasis via activation of AMPK/SIRT1 signaling pathway. AQP3 induces the activation of the AMPK/SIRT1 signaling pathway, which can reduce the inflammatory injury of gallbladder mucosal epithelial cells and improve the water transport inside and outside the mucosa. By this mechanism, the gallbladder damage of cholelithiasis can be reduced
