Glutamine release from hindlimb and uptake by kidney in the acutely acidotic rat.

H Schröck, C J Cha, L Goldstein
PMCID: PMC1161902  PMID: 7396881

Abstract

The arteriovenous difference (release) for glutamine across the hindlimb increases significantly during acute HCl-induced acidosis. This additional amount release by muscle tissue can account for the extra glutamine taken up by the kidney.
