Active transport of urea by mammalian kidney.
With the aid of three basic organic compounds, 2-pyrazinoylguanidine, 3-amino-2-pyrazinoylguanidine, and 3,5-diamino-6-fluoro-2-pyrazinoylguanidine, urea was shown to be secreted by the renal tubules of the dog both from the lumen and into the lumen independent of urine flow.
