pubmed:abstractText
In Bufo bufo urinary bladder an urea facilitated transport has been localised on the luminal membrane. The transport fulfils the criteria for such a mechanism, i.e. is saturable and is inhibited by phloretin, a specific inhibitor for urea transport. Similarly to that of Bufo marinus and Rana esculenta the luminal membrane of Bufo bufo urinary bladder shows an ADH stimulated facilitated transport. Experiments wtih Amphotericin B, serosal phloretin (with and without ADH), have demonstrated the presence of a facilitated urea transport localised on basolateral membrane. Urea uptake on the isolated epithelial cells of Bufo bufo urinary bladder shows a characteristic feature, different from molecules passively transported such as glycerol yet inhibited by phloretin. Allegedly with urea, water flows in to the cells by a dragging or osmotic effect.
