Folate uptake in the renal brush-border and basolateral membrane vesicles after acute and chronic folate oversupplementation. Uptake of [14C]-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (0.5 μM) was measured (a) in a buffer of pH 5.5 across BBMV and b in a buffer of pH 6.0 across BLMV [100 mM NaCl, 80 mM mannitol, 10 mM HEPES, 10 mM 2-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid pH 5.5, 6.0] for 30 s. Each point represents the mean ± SD of four determinations. **p < 0.01 versus control
