Molecular cloning and characterization of the vasopressin-regulated urea transporter of rat kidney collecting ducts.

Absorption of urea in the renal inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) contributes to hypertonicity in the medullary interstitium which, in turn, provides the osmotic driving force for water reabsorption. This mechanism is regulated by vasopressin via a cAMP-dependent pathway and activation of a spe...
