MDCK (Madin‐Darby canine kidney) cells were cultured either (1) dispersed within hydrated collagen gel (HCG) or (2) seeded atop a collagen substrate and then immediately overlaid with HCG. Individual cells exhibited clonal growth in three dimensions to form spherical cysts made up of a simple epithelium enclosing a fluid‐filled lumen. The cells of MDCK cysts were polarized with the basolateral surface in contact with the collagen gel and the apical surface bordering the lumen. The…

MDCK cysts: An in vitro model of epithelial cyst formation and growth
TLDR
This novel method of renal cell culture provides a study system to model the influence of the extracellular matrix on kidney epithelial cell structure and function and offers an in vitro model of general application to the study of epithelial cyst formation and growth.
Role of fibronectin deposition in cystogenesis of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells.
TLDR
The results indicate that the deposition of fibronectin underlying the cyst-lining epithelium serves to prevent apoptosis induced by three-dimensional collagen gel cultures, and hence facilitates cyst growth of MDCK cells.
Role of fibronectin deposition in branching morphogenesis of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells.
TLDR
Results indicate that the deposition of fibronectin underlying the tubule-lining epithelium serves to enhance cell proliferation and migration, and hence facilitates the branching tubulogenesis of MDCK cells.
Type I collagen gel induces Madin-Darby canine kidney cells to become fusiform in shape and lose apical-basal polarity
TLDR
The loss of epithelial polarity and acquisition of mesenchymal cellPolarity and shape by fusiform MDCK cells on type I collagen gel was previously unsuspected and may offer new opportunities for studying cytoplasmic and nuclear mechanisms regulating cell shape and polarity.
In vitro formation and expansion of cysts derived from human renal cortex epithelial cells.
TLDR
It is concluded that the formation and expansion of in vitro cysts derived from solitary human cortex cells depends on the coordinated interplay between cellular proliferation and fluid secretion.
Morphology of Renal Parenchymal Culture in Collagen Gels
TLDR
Histologically an immediate phase of necrosis was followed by regeneration whereby tubules became lined with a confluent epithelium composed of a single layer of flat to cuboidal‐shaped cells sitting on an intact tubular basement membrane (TBM).
Activated extracellular signal-regulated kinases are necessary and sufficient to initiate tubulogenesis in renal tubular MDCK strain I cell cysts.
TLDR
Results suggest that a seminal event in kidney development may be the activation of ERK in the mesonephric duct/ureteric bud cells destined to form the collecting tubules.
Morphogenesis of MDCK cells in a collagen gel matrix culture under stromal adipocyte-epithelial cell interaction.
TLDR
Results indicate that the specific stromal cell type adipocytes cause MDCK cells to organize the well-polarized tubular structures in two different manners according to their direct and indirect interactions, suggesting that adipocytes may be involved in the regulatory mechanism of renal epithelial morphogenesis.
Bcl-2 overexpression prevents apoptosis-induced Madin-Darby canine kidney simple epithelial cyst formation.
TLDR
Because Bcl-2 overexpression averts cyst cavitation, these data clearly indicate that apoptosis is an essential initial event for renal cyst formation.
Age effect of type I collagen on morphogenesis of Mardin-Darby canine kidney cells.
TLDR
Age-related alterations in collagen influence epithelial cell morphogenesis via regulation of cell apoptosis, proliferation, and/or motility through regulation of extracellular matrix.

Retention of differentiated properties in an established dog kidney epithelial cell line (MDCK)
TLDR
It is suggested that the MDCK cell line has retained the differentiated properties of the kidney epithelial cell of origin and the ability to regenerate kidney tubule-like structures in vivo.
An established but differentiated kidney epithelial cell line (MDCK).
Epithelia suspended in collagen gels can lose polarity and express characteristics of migrating mesenchymal cells
TLDR
It is concluded from these experiments that the three-dimensional collagen gel can promote dissociation, migration, and acquisition of secretory organelles by differentiated epithelial cells, and can abolish the apical-basal cell polarity characteristic of the original epithelium.
The MDCK epithelial cell line expresses a cell surface antigen of the kidney distal tubule
TLDR
The results indicate the probable distal tubule origin of MDCK and suggest that the monoclonal antibody recognizes a cell surface antigen involved in physiological functions unique to the kidney distal Tubule and transporting epithelia of nonrenal tissues.
Transepithelial transport in cell culture.
TLDR
In cell culture a kidney epithelial cell line MDCK, forms a continuous sheet of identically oriented asymmetrical cells joined by circumferential occluding junctions, which has transport and permeability qualities of in vivo transporting epithelia.

TLDR
A method for embedding cells within a collagen matrix which allows sustained growth of mouse mammary tumor epithelial cells in primary culture is developed and resulted in the development of mammary adenocarcinoma histologically similar to the donor tumor.
Influence of collagen gel on the orientation of epithelial cell polarity: follicle formation from isolated thyroid cells and from preformed monolayers
TLDR
First, a basal pole was always formed in the area of contact between the cell membrane and an adhesive surface and, second, the interaction of a preformed apical pole with an adhesivesurface was not compatible with the stability of this domain of the plasma membrane.
Polarized monolayers formed by epithelial cells on a permeable and translucent support
TLDR
Measurements of Na+ permeability of electrical and tracer methods ruled out exchange diffusion as a mechanism for ion permeation and the lack of current saturation in the I/deltapsi curves does not support the involvement of carriers.
Sustained growth in primary culture of normal mammary epithelial cells embedded in collagen gels.
TLDR
The present system provides a method for sustaining growth in culture of primary mammary epithelial cells from normal tissues and shows that the concentration of stimulatory factor(s) was not influenced by the hormonal status of the donor.
