Description
MDCK (Madin-Darby Canine Kidney) is a mammalian cell line that was derived from the kidney cells of a cocker spaniel in 1958. These cells have been extensively used in biomedical research due to their positive staining for keratin by immunoperoxidase. They are particularly useful in the processing of beta-amyloid precursor protein and its products.
Although MDCK cells are susceptible to viral infection, they make good transfection hosts and can be helpful in studying kidney cell function and gene expression. Additionally, the MDCK cell line is widely used in influenza studies.
MDCK cells are hyperdiploid and have a bi-modal chromosome number distribution. While most cells have one normal X chromosome, there are no consistent identifiable marker chromosomes.
CD BioSciences produces polymer-based transfection reagent kits for the MDCK cell line, providing researchers with a powerful tool for investigating a wide range of biomedical questions.
