Uric acid transport, transporters, and their pharmacological targeting
Abstract Knowledge of uric acid (UA) crystallopathies preceded the identification of this compound. How the body handles and transports UA proved even more elusive. Over several decades, advances in molecular phenotyping have illuminated this hitherto nebulous field. Closely parallel to the characterization of the transport mechanisms of UA in the body

Hyperuricemia is a common disease caused by a high level of uric acid. Urate transporter 1 (URAT1) is an important protein and mediates approximately 90% of uric acid reabsorption. Therefore, the URAT1 inhibitor is a class of uricosuric medicines widely used in the clinic for the treatment of hyperuricemia.

Benzbromarone Inhibits Renal URAT1 and Attenuates Renal Damage in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats, Independent of Its Uricosuric Effects. [PDF]
Background Hyperuricemia remains a critical risk factor for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) currently. Recent studies have confirmed that allopurinol, an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase (XO), does not have any beneficial effects on DKD. However, it is still unclear how uricosurics, such as benzbromarone (BZ), affect the progression of DKD.

Indoxyl sulfate (IS) accumulates in the body in chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the renal proximal tubules, IS excretion is mediated by OAT1/3 and ABCG2. These transporters are inhibited by some hypouricemic agents; OATs by probenecid and benzbromarone,

Introducere. Guta, una din cele mai vechi forme de artrită cunoscută din 2640 înainte de Hristos, descrisă de Hipocrate ca „boala de netrecut”, a cunoscut în ultimii 30 de ani o creștere cu 100% a prevalenței cu circa 41,2 milioane de adulți la nivel ...
