Anion transporters NaS1 (SLC13A1) and Sat1 (SLC26A1) mediate sulfate (re) absorption
across renal proximal tubule and small intestinal epithelia, thereby regulating blood sulfate
levels. Disruption of murine NaS1 and Sat1 genes leads to hyposulfatemia and
hypersulfaturia. Sat1-null mice also exhibit hyperoxalemia, hyperoxaluria, and calcium
oxalate urolithiasis. This review will highlight the current pathophysiological features of
NaS1-and Sat1-null mice resulting from alterations in circulating sulfate and oxalate anion …
