Effect of phosphate on water and glucose transport in mouse everted gut sacs.
Everted sacs prepared from proximal and distal parts of mouse intestine were used to study water and glucose transport in phosphate media. In the presence of high phosphate, glucose was found to increase water transport in the proximal segment but to decrease it in the distal segment. The possible mechanism of this action is discussed.
