Attenuation of Influenza a Virus into Live Vaccines Through C‐End Degrons
Naturally occurring C‐end degrons are exploited to design proteolysis‐targeting live attenuated influenza vaccines. C‐end degron tagging of viral M1 protein promotes proteasome‐dependent degradation, resulting in robust attenuation in host cells while permitting scalable production in engineered cells.

We previously showed that in polarized Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is continuously targeted to the basolateral plasma membrane from which it is rapidly retrieved by clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Monoclonal Antibodies 13A4 and AC133 Do Not Recognize the Canine Ortholog of Mouse and Human Stem Cell Antigen Prominin-1 (CD133). [PDF]
The pentaspan membrane glycoprotein prominin-1 (CD133) is widely used in medicine as a cell surface marker of stem and cancer stem cells. It has opened new avenues in stem cell-based regenerative therapy and oncology.

Calcium Shock Enables Efficient and Programmable Particle Delivery for Genome Editing Applications
Classical transfection and transduction are inefficient, particularly with confluent cells and organoids, and lack cell type‐specific programmability. This study presents calcium shock (CaSh), a method that dramatically improves particle delivery into single cells, colonies, and organoids.

Light‐programmable, non‐cytotoxic ion gels based on ABC triblock copolymers undergo photoreversible sol‐gel transitions, crossing the rheological boundary (tan δ ∼ 1). UV–vis light irradiation modulates the lifetime of reversible junctions, switching the scaffold between liquid‐like and solid (gel)‐like states.

Hyperosmolality regulates endothelin release by Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. [PDF]
ET release by the renal epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line was investigated under isosmotic (300 mosmol/kg H2O; pH 7.4) and hyperosmotic (400, 500, or 600 mosmol/kg H2O) culture and assay conditions by the use of a specific and sensitive RIA. During isosmotic incubation, MDCK cells, which may be of collecting duct origin, secreted by

The IQGAP1‐Claudin4‐JNK Signaling Axis as a Differential Biomarker in Renal Cell Carcinoma
ABSTRACT Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a highly heterogeneous malignant neoplasm with multiple morphological and molecular subtypes; however, the basis of this heterogeneity remains incompletely defined, hindering effective diagnosis and treatment. The signaling scaffold IQGAP1 and claudins are tight junction protein partners involved in epithelial ...

Molecular characterization and antiviral effects of canine interferon regulatory factor 1 (CaIRF1)
Background Interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) is an important transcription factor that activates the type I interferon (IFN-I) response and plays a vital role in the antiviral immune response.

Differential sensitivity of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells to epinephrine
Catecholamines regulate a variety of cellular functions in the mammalian kidney. The present study was aimed to investigate the differential sensitivity of Madin-Darby Kidney Cells (MDCK cells) to epinephrine in a dose-dependent manner. The loss of adhesion and altered cell shape were observed in MDCK cells.

TGN38 recycles basolaterally in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. [PDF]
Sorting of newly synthesized plasma membrane proteins to the apical or basolateral surface domains of polarized cells is currently thought to take place within the trans-Golgi network (TGN). To explore the relationship between protein localization to the TGN and sorting to the plasma membrane in polarized epithelial cells, we have expressed constructs
