Water transport mediated by murine urea transporters: implications for urine concentration mechanisms

Water transport mediated by murine urea transporters: implications for urine concentration mechanisms

Urea transporters (UTs) facilitate urea diffusion across cell membranes and play an important role in the urinary concentration mechanisms in the kidney. Herein, we injected cRNAs encoding for c-Myc-tagged murine UT-B, UT-A2 or UT-A3 (versus water-injected control) in Lithobates oocytes and evaluate...
