RESUMO
Free-flow micropuncture studies were performed on twenty-seven young female Sprague-Dawley rats before and after 10% extracellular volume expansion to evaluate glucose reabsorption at the accessible sites of both surface and papillary nephrons. In the distal nephron segments no significant glucose reabsorption was observed for the distal tubule and papillary collecting duct but significant difference in fractional glucose delivery was demonstrated between the bend of the Henle's loop and early distal tubule and between the late distal tubule and the base of the collecting duct. Comparison of the fractional glucose delivery within the same nephron group for both superficial and juxtamedullary nephrons indicated that glucose reabsorption occurred at some sites beyond the bend of the Henle's loop. Volume expansion inhibited glucose reabsorption in the proximal convoluted tubule, enhanced it in the segment between the late proximal and early distal tubules, but had no effect on glucose transport at further distal sites. It is concluded that, in addition to the proximal tubule, the ascending loop of Henle or cortical collecting tubule may play a role in maintaining glucose-free urine under physiological conditions.
