Uptake of uric acid by separated renal tubules of the rabbit. I. Characteristics of transport.

A rapid filtration procedure was used to determine rates of uric acid uptake by a preparation of separated renal cortical tubules of the rabbit. The rate of uric acid uptake was temperature dependent and showed saturation kinetics with a K of 3.2 mM. The uptake was 50% lower when measured under nitrogen as compared with uptake under oxygen. The uptake rate increased with increasing sodium concentration and decreased with increasing potassium concentration. Uptake was stimulated by citrate, succinate and pyruvate, and inhibited by alpha-ketoglutarate. Parathyroid hormone and 10(-4) M adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate increased the uric acid uptake rate when preincubated with the tubules for 130 minutes before the addition of uric acid. Uric acid uptake in this preparation appears to occur by some form of carrier-mediated active transport.
