Inactivating the sodium-glucose symport SGLT2 inhibits the reabsorption of glucose by ____________________________.

Solution

The sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) is responsible for glucose reabsorption in the kidney (Proximal convoluted tube). If we inhibit SGLT2 lot of glucose excreted in urine. This mechanism now used in Type 2 Diabetes to decrease the blood glucose level by increase the glucose excreted through urine.
