<i>hURAT1</i> Transgenic Mouse Model for Evaluating Targeted Urate-Lowering Agents
2023-11-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objective</h4> Urate transporter 1 (URAT1), a well-established urate-lowering therapeutic target for hyperuricemia and gout treatment, expresses in the kidney proximal tubule and is responsible for uric acid (UA) reabsorption. However, non-primate animal models currently used in pharmacological studies failed to evaluate URAT1 inhibitor’s effectiveness because their URAT1 has a very low UA affinity compared t...
