URAT1 is expressed in cardiomyocytes and dotinurad attenuates the development of diet-induced metabolic heart disease

Summary: We recently reported that the selective inhibition of urate transporter-1 (URAT1), which is primarily expressed in the kidneys, ameliorates insulin resistance by attenuating hepatic steatosis and improving brown adipose tissue function in diet-induced obesity. In this study, we evaluated th...
