It gets absorbed into the blood stream via Lumen and a Glucose/Na+ symporter, Na+/K+ atpase and glucose 2 uniporter, but essentially is absorbed into the blood stream.

It is moved by Na-K-2Cl co-transporters across the loop of henle into the vasa recta. There are other co-transporters which move sodium, glucose, chloride and other ions back into the circulation.

In neurons, ________ ions are at higher concentration inside the cell and ________ ions are at higher

concentration in the extracellular fluid.

A) Cl; organically bound

B) Cl; K

C) K; Na

D) Cl; Na

E) Na; K

Loop diuretics act by competing for the chloride site on the Na-K-2Cl cotransporter. Inhibiting sodium chloride reabsorption also inhibits the backleak of potassium and the generation of the lumen-positive potential. As a result, calcium excretion rises.

K= Kallium ( Greek, I think ) Na= Naturium, which is Latin.
