Significant Species Differences in Intestinal Phosphate Absorption between Dogs, Rats, and Monkeys.

This study revealed significant species differences in intestinal phosphate absorption. NaPi-IIb contributes to intestinal phosphate uptake in rats and dogs. However, in monkeys, phosphate is poorly absorbed due to the slight degradation of organic phosphate in the intestine. PMID: 32115455 [PubMed - in process]
