Hyperuricemia and the small intestine: Transport mechanisms and co-morbidities
There is a global increase in cases of hyperuricemia over the last 10 years. A critical component of serum uric acid control is the transport of uric acid to the intestinal lumen, which accounts for 30% of the uric acid eliminated from the serum.

Tubular Handling of Uric Acid and Factors Influencing Its Renal Excretion: A Short Review [PDF]
In this review, the authors briefly examine the most recent evidence concerning the role of several proteins involved in tubular urate transport. They also analyse the influence of extracellular volume, electrolyte disorders, acid-base imbalance, and ...

Extra-renal elimination of uric acid via intestinal efflux transporter BCRP/ABCG2. [PDF]
Urinary excretion accounts for two-thirds of total elimination of uric acid and the remainder is excreted in feces. However, the mechanism of extra-renal elimination is poorly understood.
