Glutaminase is also expressed in the epithelial cells of the renal tubules, where the produced ammonia is excreted as ammonium ions.
22.
It is also needed to render nonpolar compounds polar so that they are not reabsorbed in renal tubules and are excreted.
23.
FGF23 ( fibroblast growth factor 23 ) inhibits phosphate transport in the renal tubule and reduces calcitriol production by the kidney.
24.
Distally, efferent arterioles branch out to form dense plexuses ( i . e ., capillary beds ) around their adjacent renal tubules.
25.
Since stavudine and zidovudine are OAT1 substrates, they may have similar effects on proximal renal tubule cells as they do on fat cells.
26.
It contains the renal corpuscles and the renal tubules except for parts of the loop of Henle which descend into the renal medulla.
27.
SGLT-2 is mainly expressed in the S-1 and S-2 segments of the proximal renal tubules where the majority of filtered glucose is absorbed.
28.
CCDC142 has been found to be expressed in respiratory epithelium cilia, fallopian tubes, megakaryocytes, certain renal tubules, seminiferous duct cells, and skeletal cells 6.
29.
They form via precipitation of Tamm Horsfall mucoprotein which is secreted by renal tubule cells, and sometimes also by albumin in conditions of proteinuria.
30.
The protein encoded by this gene is a voltage-driven transporter that excretes intracellular urate and organic anions from the blood into renal tubule cells.
