Na<sup>+</sup>-Coupled Nutrient Cotransport Induced Luminal Negative Potential and Claudin-15 Play an Important Role in Paracellular Na<sup>+</sup> Recycling in Mouse Small Intestine

Na<sup>+</sup>-Coupled Nutrient Cotransport Induced Luminal Negative Potential and Claudin-15 Play an Important Role in Paracellular Na<sup>+</sup> Recycling in Mouse Small Intestine

Many nutrients are absorbed via Na<sup>+</sup> cotransport systems, and therefore it is predicted that nutrient absorption mechanisms require a large amount of luminal Na<sup>+</sup>. It is thought that Na<sup>+</sup> diffuses back into the lumen via paracellular...
