In order to evaluate whether an active transport of urea exists across the collecting duct epithelia of rats the following experiments were performed. Under conditions, where the net transtubular transport of urea, water, and other solutes was zero, tk, e unidirectional flux of Clt-urea out of the c
## Abstract In the kidney of marine elasmobranchs, urea reabsorption from filtered urine is essential for maintaining high levels of urea in the body. In the kidney of the houndshark, __Triakis scyllium__, we previously found that a facilitative urea transporter (UT) is localized to a specific neph
We examined the action of high (2 x 10(-8)M) and low (6 x 10(-9)M) concentrations of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on water and urea transport in the rat inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) using the in vitro microperfusion technique. We measured the hydraulic conductivity (Lp x 10(-6) cm/atm p
