SNARE Protein Trafficking in Polarized MDCK Cells

Traffic, 2000
A key feature of polarized epithelial cells is the ability to maintain the specific biochemical composition of the apical and basolateral plasma membrane domains. This polarity is generated and maintained by the continuous sorting of apical and basolateral components in the secretory and endocytic pathways.

Electrical Properties of MDCK Cells

1985
The electrical characterization of a transporting epithelium requires information three main aspects: (1) the overall electrical properties across the whole cell layer; (2) the transcellular permeation route; and (3) the paracellular pathway. In the present article we describe assumptions, techniques, efforts, and information collected on these aspects

Mineralocorticoid-induced membrane proteins in MDCK cells

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 1982
The Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line, which exhibits properties indicative of a distal tubule origin, evidently binds and responds to mineralocorticoid hormones. We investigated the effects of aldosterone and deoxycorticosterone on protein synthesis in MDCK cells grown either in medium supplemented with serum or in a hormonally defined, serum-

Ion Transport in MDCK Cells

1985
The use of monolayers of MDCK cells as a model system for natural transporting epithelia created the necessity of learning about their ion-translocating mechanisms. These mechanisms have been analyzed directly by measuring unidirectional fluxes of tracers, and indirectly through their consequences on electrical parameters and blister-forming activity ...

Variability of functional characteristics of MDCK cells

American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 1986
We measured several functional parameters of MDCK cells cultured as monolayers in order to more fully characterize their ion transport properties. Most of the present studies were completed with five groups (A-E) of MDCK cells studied from passage 62 to 78.

Cyclic‐AMP deficient MDCK cells form tubules

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 1995
AbstractIt has known for many years that MDCK cells blister structures, termed domes. During an examination of the morphbology of a large number of MDCK clones, we found that two stable morphotypes exist in an MDCK cell population namely, dome‐forming and tubule‐forming clones. When maintained at high cell density, tubule‐forming clones displayed large

Regulation of the MDCK Cell Tight Junction

Journal of Membrane Biology, 1998
The sodium flux across individual tight junctions (TJ) of low-resistance MDCK cell monolayers grown on glass coverslips was determined as a measure of paracellular permeability. Increases in perfusate glucose concentration from 5 to 25 mM decreased tight junction Na permeability. This permeability decrease was not specific as nonmetabolizable analogues

Endocytosis in MDCK Cells

1992
In polarized cells the plasma membrane is divided into apical and basolateral domains. Membrane is internalized from both these domains and the internalized components can follow several different routes, for example, they can be transported to the opposite domain of the cell (transcytosis), routed to lysosomes or recycled back to the same domain ...

Validation of Human MDR1-MDCK and BCRP-MDCK Cell Lines to Improve the Prediction of Brain Penetration

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2019
It is of great challenge to predict human brain penetration for substrates of multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), 2 major efflux transporters at blood-brain barrier. Thus, a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model with the incorporation of in vitro MDR1 and BCRP transporter function data and ...

Tight junction formation in cultured epithelial cells (MDCK)

The Journal of Membrane Biology, 1985
Synthesis and assembly of tight junctions are studied in monolayers of MDCK cells plated at a density sufficient for confluence, allowed to attach for 1 hr, and transferred to fresh media without cells containing or not Ca2+. 20 hr later, while monolayers with Ca2+ have fully developed junctions that confer an electrical resistance across of 346 +/- 51
