Abstract

The present studies demonstrate that a tubular maximum for phosphate absorption is present in the proximal tubule in the rat. In addition, the presence of D-glucose in the solution on the luminal side of the renal tubular cells inhibits phosphate absorption. The effect of D-glucose on phosphate absorption requires the tubular absorption of D-glucose and does not appear to be due to an interaction between glucose and phosphate at the luminal surface of the renal tubular cells.
