摘要
Knowledge of uric acid (UA) crystallopathies preceded the identification of this compound. How the body handles and transports UA proved even more elusive. Over several decades, advances in molecular phenotyping have illuminated this hitherto nebulous field. Closely parallel to the characterization of the transport mechanisms of UA in the body was the development of drugs designed to manipulate UA levels. In this review, we highlight the study of UA transport and transporters. This is an evolving field, and we expect our knowledge of the transport mechanisms to both widen and deepen further. We focus on the best-characterized transporters rather than an exhaustive catalog of all suspected transporters. We review the established and novel compounds that modulate UA transport.
