Abstract
The three-dimensional culture of epithelial cells allows the characterization of processes required for collective epithelial polarization, such as formation of an epithelial lumen. Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells have been instrumental in pioneering 3-Dimensional culture analysis methods. Here we describe methods for MDCK cell three-dimensional culture, generation of stable engineered cell lines, immunolabeling, and imaging approaches that allow for analysis of apical-basal polarity during lumen formation in this model.
