Normal nephron. The reabsorption of glucose is produced through the co-transporters SGL T1 and SGLT2, expressed in the apical membrane of the proximal tubule. SGLT2 reabsorbs approximately around 80% to 90% of the filtered glucose. The resting 10% to 20% is reabsorbed by SGLT1, a high affinity and low capacity transporter that is expressed in the apical membrane of the epithelium in the proximal descending tubule.
