Sorting of the Human Folate Receptor in MDCK Cells

BMB Reports, 2004
The human folate receptor (hFR) is a glycosylphosphatidy-linositol (GPI) linked plasma membrane protein that mediates delivery of folates into cells. We studied the sorting of the hFR using transfection of the hFR cDNA into MDCK cells. MDCK cells are polarized epithelial cells that preferentially sort GPI-linked proteins to their apical membrane ...

Highly dynamic microtubules improve the effectiveness of early stages of human influenza A/NWS/33 virus infection in LLC-MK2 cells.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundThis study aims to investigate the role of microtubule dynamics in the initiation of NWS/33 human influenza A (NWS) virus infection in MDCK and LLC-MK2 mammalian kidney cells.

Molecular Insights and Repellent Efficacy of the Essential Oil and Major Compounds From Piper cyrtopodon (Miq.) C.DC (Piperaceae) Against Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (Culicidae)

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 6, June 2026.
The essential oil and major compounds from Piper cyrtopodon exhibit potent, long‐lasting repellent activity against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, combined with low cytotoxicity and favorable molecular docking interactions with odorant‐binding proteins. These findings highlight its potential for the development of alternative products for bite prevention ...

Cell membrane disruption stimulates cAMP and Ca2+ signaling to potentiate cell membrane resealing in neighboring cells

Biology Open, 2017
Disruption of cellular plasma membranes is a common event in many animal tissues, and the membranes are usually rapidly resealed. Moreover, repeated membrane disruptions within a single cell reseal faster than the initial wound in a protein kinase A (PKA)

Selective inhibition of transcytosis by brefeldin A in MDCK cells

Cell, 1991
Treatment of most cells with brefeldin A (BFA) leads to the retrieval of the Golgi complex to the endoplasmic reticulum, presumably reflecting an inhibition of cytoplasmic coat protein binding to Golgi membranes. Although BFA has been thought to act only on biosynthetic organelles, we now show that this drug also reversibly blocks polymeric ...

Cellular Aggregation Facilitates Anoikis in MDCK Cells

The Journal of Physiological Sciences, 2008
Anoikis is a specific type of apoptosis caused by the detachment of anchorage-dependent cells from their supportive matrix. Aggregation of suspended cells is believed to suppress anoikis. Here we describe the effects of cellular aggregation on anoikis in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells.

Influence of puerarin, paeoniflorin, and menthol on structure and barrier function of tight junctions in MDCK and MDCK-MDR1 Cells

Journal of Traditional Chinese Medical Sciences, 2015
Objective: In this study, the influence of puerarin, paeoniflorin, and menthol on the structure and barrier function of tight junctions (TJs) in Madin–Darby canine kidney epithelial (MDCK) and MDCK-multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1) cells was evaluated to ...

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

Vaccine, 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)
