Labeling Strategies for Monitoring Cytoskeleton Dynamics in Cultured Epithelial Cells

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Collective cell migration relies on coordinated cytoskeletal remodeling, yet the impact of live‐cell actin filament probes on these dynamics remains poorly characterized. Here, we systematically compared the performance and cellular effects of fluorogenic jasplakinolide‐based probes, SiR‐actin and SiR‐XActin, with the genetically encoded ...

Higher titers of some H5N1 and recent human H1N1 and H3N2 influenza viruses in Mv1 Lu vs. MDCK cells

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2011
Background The infectivity of influenza A viruses can differ among the various primary cells and continuous cell lines used for such measurements. Over many years, we observed that all things equal, the cytopathic effects caused by influenza A subtype ...

Toward Predicting Pandemic Potential: A Comparative Analysis of Virus‐Host Interactions Between Diverse Influenza A Viruses and the Human Innate Immune System

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Zoonotic infections caused by influenza A viruses (IAVs) of animal origin are a major public health concern, as they may represent the initial step toward the emergence of a pandemic strain. The host range of IAVs is shaped by species‐specific virus‐host interactions, and several host barriers have been identified that restrict the adaptation ...

Production, Passaging Stability, and Histological Analysis of Madin–Darby Canine Kidney Cells Cultured in a Low-Serum Medium

open access: yesVaccines
Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are commonly used to produce cell-based influenza vaccines. However, the role of the low-serum medium on the proliferation of MDCK cells and the propagation of the influenza virus has not been well studied.

Expression Profile of Drug and Nutrient Absorption Related Genes in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) Cells Grown under Differentiation Conditions

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2012
The expression levels of genes involved in drug and nutrient absorption were evaluated in the Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) <em>in vitro</em> drug absorption model.

Comprehensive in vitro profiling of traditional and emerging stimulants at monoamine transporters and the 5‐HT2A receptor

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
A pharmacological profiling of 58 synthetic stimulants of various classes at dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin transporters and the 5‐HT2A receptor, most showing distinct class‐dependent profiles, with some indicating a high abuse potential. Background and Purpose New psychoactive substances (NPSs) often emerge on the illicit drug market with ...

Protective essential oil attenuates influenza virus infection: An in vitro study in MDCK cells

open access: yesBMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2010
Background Influenza is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. The recent pandemic of a novel H1N1 influenza virus has stressed the importance of the search for effective treatments for this disease. Essential oils from aromatic plants have been

Glycosphingolipid synthesis is essential for MDCK cell differentiation

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2012
Glycosphingolipids (GSLs), which are highly concentrated at the apical membrane of polarized epithelial cells, are key components of cell membranes and are involved in a large number of processes. Here, we investigated the ability of hypertonicity (high salt medium) to induce Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cell differentiation and found an increase ...

Chemoproteomic discovery of a brain‐penetrant, covalent NLRP3 inhibitor that binds a novel allosteric pocket

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
NLRP3 is a promising inflammatory target, but existing inhibitors lack diversity and brain penetrance, and none are approved. Using chemoproteomics, we discovered a novel series that binds to Cys463 in a previously uncharacterized pocket. Compounds showed nanomolar potency, brain exposure, and in vivo suppression of IL‐1β, supporting neuroinflammatory ...

Influenza entry pathways in polarized MDCK cells

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2014
In non-polarized cell culture models, influenza virus has been shown to enter host cells via multiple endocytic pathways, including classical clathrin-mediated endocytic routes (CME), clathrin- and caveolae-independent routes and macropinocytosis. However, little is known about the entry route of influenza virus in differentiated epithelia, in vivo ...
