Current opinion in rheumatology, 2007•journals.lww.comAlthough our knowledge of renal urate handling has been increased by the molecular

serum urate disorders, current evidence is insufficient to fully understand the precise
mechanism governing the bi-directional transport of urate. Further studies are still
