Na+-coupled phosphate cotransporters from the SLC34 and SLC20 families of solute carriers mediate transepithelial transport of inorganic phosphate (Pi). NaPi-IIa/Slc34a1, NaPi-IIc/Slc34a3, and Pit-2/Slc20a2 are all expressed at the apical membrane of renal proximal tubules and therefore contribute to renal Pi reabsorption. Unlike NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc, which are rather kidney-specific, NaPi-IIb/Slc34a2 is expressed in several epithelial tissues, including the intestine, lung, testis, and mammary glands. Recently, the expression of NaPi-IIb was also reported in kidneys from rats fed on high Pi. Here, we systematically quantified the mRNA expression of SLC34 and SLC20 cotransporters in kidneys from mice, rats, and humans. In all three species, NaPi-IIa mRNA was by far the most abundant renal transcript. Low and comparable mRNA levels of the other four transporters, including NaPi-IIb, were detected in kidneys from rodents and humans. In mice, the renal expression of NaPi-IIa transcripts was restricted to the cortex, whereas NaPi-IIb mRNA was observed in medullary segments. Consistently, NaPi-IIb protein colocalized with uromodulin at the luminal membrane of thick ascending limbs of the loop of Henle segments. The abundance of NaPi-IIb transcripts in kidneys from mice was neither affected by dietary Pi, the absence of renal NaPi-IIc, nor the depletion of intestinal NaPi-IIb. In contrast, it was highly upregulated in a model of oxalate-induced kidney disease where all other SLC34 phosphate transporters were downregulated. Thus, NaPi-IIb may contribute to renal phosphate reabsorption, and its upregulation in kidney disease might promote hyperphosphatemia.
