Factors Affecting Urate Reabsorption in the Rat Kidney

  • Chapter
Purine Metabolism in Man—II

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 76B))

Abstract

Urate handling in the rat kidney has been shown to involve bidirectional transport in the proximal tubule, net reabsorption in the loops of Henle and negligible transport in the distal nephron. In this paper, results will be discussed describing the effects of luminal urate concentration, pH and flow rate on urate reabsorption.
