Sugar Transport: Effect of Temperature on Concentrative Uptake of α-Methylglucoside by Kidney Cortex Slices

Abstract
The ability of renal cortical slices to accumulate a monosaccharide is enhanced at temperatures below 37°C. Increase in concentration gradients occurs despite a decrease in total sugar flux. The apparent explanation for this paradox is a proportionally greater inhibition of efflux.
