Research Methods and New Advances in Drug–Drug Interactions Mediated by Renal Transporters
The kidney is critical in the human body’s excretion of drugs and their metabolites. Renal transporters participate in actively secreting substances from the proximal tubular cells and reabsorbing them in the distal renal tubules.

Endocrine and metabolic regulation of renal drug transporters. [PDF]
AbstractRenal xenobiotic transporters are important determinants of urinary secretion and reabsorption of chemicals. In addition to glomerular filtration, these processes are key to the overall renal clearance of a diverse array of drugs and toxins.

Renal Tubular Drug Transporters [PDF]
The kidney plays an important role in the elimination of numerous hydrophilic xenobiotics, including drugs, toxins, and endogenous compounds. It has developed high-capacity transport systems to prevent urinary loss of filtered nutrients, as well as electrolytes, and simultaneously to facilitate tubular secretion of a wide range of organic ions ...

Lesinurad, a novel, oral compound for gout, acts to decrease serum uric acid through inhibition of urate transporters in the kidney. [PDF]
BackgroundExcess body burden of uric acid promotes gout. Diminished renal clearance of uric acid causes hyperuricemia in most patients with gout, and the renal urate transporter (URAT)1 is important for regulation of serum uric acid (sUA) levels.

Completing the Enalaprilat Excretion Pathway—Renal Handling by the Proximal Tubule
Background: Enalapril is often used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Clinical data suggest that the urinary excretion of enalaprilat, the active metabolite of enalapril, is mediated by renal transporters.

Renal Transporter‐Mediated Drug‐Drug Interactions: Are They Clinically Relevant? [PDF]
AbstractThe kidney, through the distinct processes of passive glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion, plays an important role in the elimination of numerous endobiotics (eg, hormones, metabolites), toxins, nutrients, and drugs. Renal transport pathways mediating active tubular secretion and reabsorption in the proximal tubule are complex ...

Pharmacokinetics and Toxicokinetics Roles of Membrane Transporters at Kidney Level
Transporters are large membrane proteins, which control the passage of various compounds through biological membranes. These proteins are divided into uptake and efflux transporters and play an important role in the toxicokinetics of many endobiotics and
