MDCK cells maintained on extracellular matrix (ECM)‐coated dishes and exposed to Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DME) supplemented with transferrin and either high‐density lipoproteins (HDLs) or phosphatidyl choline (PC) liposomes have a growth rate and final cell density similar to those of cultures exposed to serum‐supplemented DME. When MDCK cells are exposed to a medium consisting of a mixture (1:1) of DME and F12 medium (D/F), the addition of transferrin (10 μg/ml) alone supports cell growth and the presence of HDLs or PC liposomes is no longer required. MDCK cells exposed to D/F medium supplemented with transferrin can be passaged for more than 50 generations in total absence of serum. The F12 components that support growth in the absence of HDLs or PC liposomes are biotin (which is absent in DME) and choline (which is present in insufficient concentration in DME). Supplementation of DME with transferrin, biotin (3.6 ng/ml), and choline (10 μg/ml) allows optimal growth of MDCK cells and permits serial propagation through more than 50 generations. The growth requirement of MDCK cells for HDLs or PC liposomes can therefore be replaced by adequate concentrations of biotin and choline. The widely observed fact that a combination of DME/F12 medium is more effective than DME alone in supporting cell growth may be due in part to the lack of biotin and suboptimal choline concentration in DME.
