The SNARE machinery is involved in apical plasma membrane trafficking in MDCK cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We have investigated the controversial involvement of components of the SNARE (soluble N-ethyl maleimide-sensitive factor [NSF] attachment protein [SNAP] receptor) machinery in membrane traffic to the apical plasma membrane of polarized epithelial (MDCK)

Afadin orients cell division to position the tubule lumen in developing renal tubules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In many types of tubules, continuity of the lumen is paramount to tubular function, yet how tubules generate lumen continuity in vivo is not known. We recently found the F-actin binding protein Afadin is required for lumen continuity in developing renal ...

Amino Acids Regulate Transgene Expression in MDCK Cells

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Gene expression and cell growth rely on the intracellular concentration of amino acids, which in metazoans depends on extracellular amino acid availability and transmembrane transport. To investigate the impact of extracellular amino acid concentrations on the expression of a concentrative amino acid transporter, we overexpressed the main kidney ...

Multi‐Targeting Ligands as Prospective Therapeutics for Alzheimer's Disease, a Prevalent Neurodegenerative Disorder: Mechanistic Insights, Emerging Targets and Drug Discovery Campaigns

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative condition characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, memory deterioration, and neuronal dysfunction. Its complex pathophysiology involves multiple interlinked processes, including amyloid‐β (Aβ) aggregation, tau hyperphosphorylation, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation ...

Systematic evaluation of suspension MDCK cells, adherent MDCK cells, and LLC-MK2 cells for preparing influenza vaccine seed virus

open access: yesVaccine, 2019
Suspension Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells (MDCK-N), adherent MDCK cells (MDCK-C), and adherent rhesus monkey kidney LLC-MK2 cells (LLC-MK2D) were systematically evaluated for the preparation of influenza vaccine seed viruses for humans on the basis of primary virus isolation efficiency, growth ability, genetic stability of the hemagglutinin (HA)

Sphinganine‐phosphate prevents influenza infection via promoting CD8+ T cells proliferation and activation

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
This study established clinical cohorts of respiratory viral infections and identified sphinganine‐phosphate (SA) as a metabolite significantly upregulated post‐infection through metabolomic analysis. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that SA promotes the generation of effector CD8+ T cells via the SOCS1/JAK1/STAT1 pathway, which ...

LRP promotes endocytosis and degradation, but not transcytosis, of the amyloid-β peptide in a blood–brain barrier in vitro model

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2008
The pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by aggregation of the amyloid-β protein (Aβ) into neurotoxic plaques. Recent in vivo studies have suggested the non-proteolytic clearance of Aβ via receptor-mediated transport across the blood ...
