Regulation of caveolin and caveolae by cholesterol in MDCK cells [PDF]
We have examined the expression of caveolin in MDCK cells under conditions that vary cellular cholesterol concentration. Caveolin mRNA levels dropped to one-sixth of control levels after treatment with simvastatin, an inhibitor of cholesterol synthesis, or beta-trimethyl cyclodextrin (CD), a cholesterol sequestering drug.

Steviol reduces MDCK Cyst formation and growth by inhibiting CFTR channel activity and promoting proteasome-mediated CFTR degradation. [PDF]
Cyst enlargement in polycystic kidney disease (PKD) involves cAMP-activated proliferation of cyst-lining epithelial cells and transepithelial fluid secretion into the cyst lumen via cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride ...

Comparison of mutation patterns in full-genome A/H3N2 influenza sequences obtained directly from clinical samples and the same samples after a single MDCK passage. [PDF]
Human influenza viruses can be isolated efficiently from clinical samples using Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. However, this process is known to induce mutations in the virus as it adapts to this non-human cell-line.

A regio‐ and diastereoselective method for strain‐release pentafluorosulfanylation of carbonyl‐containing 1,3‐disubstituted [1.1.0]bicyclobutanes (BCBs) was developed that led to several fortuitous discoveries. For instance, the resultant SF5‐cyclobutanes (SF5‐CBs) exhibit close SF5⋯C═X contacts (X = C, N, O) and provide synthetic access to a new class

Replication kinetics in MDCK or MDCK-SIAT1 cells.
MDCK (panel A) or MDCK-SIAT1 (panel B) cells were inoculated with 0.001 TCID50 virus per cell of recNL/602 (black circles), isolate NL/2631-R223 (black triangles) and recNL/602-I223R (open circles).

Clostridium perfringensepsilon toxin H149A mutant as a platform for receptor binding studies
Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxin (Etx) is a pore-forming toxin responsible for a severe and rapidly fatal enterotoxemia of ruminants. The toxin is classified as a category B bioterrorism agent by the U.S.

Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Ganglioside GM2 is substrate for a sialidase in MDCK cells
GM1 ganglioside carrying a fluorescent fatty acid in substitution of the natural one, has been administered to cultured Madin‐Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells for different pulse times (0.5–24 h), and its metabolic fate was followed. The fluorescent GM2, asialo‐GM2, asialo‐GM1 and ceramide were the only detectable metabolites.
