Accumulation of Uric Acid in Rabbit Kidney Cortical Slices

Uric acid transport across the basolateral membrane of renal proximal tubules was studied in rabbit kidney cortical slices. Uric acid uptake was greater under O₂ atmosphere compared to under N₂ atmosphere, and was increased with Na²⁺} concentration in incubation medium. Uric acid inhibited PAH uptake but not TEA uptake and did trans-stimulated PAH efflux. PAH also inhibited uric acid uptake. Uric acid uptake was inhibited by harmaline, ouabin, SITS, DIDS and pyrazinoic acid. The inhibition of PAH uptake by these inhibitors also was reasonably comparable to that of uric acid uptake. These results suggest that uric acid was transported across the basolateral membrane of renal tubule by a carrier-mediated process which was by a common transport system with PAH in rabbit.
