Hold up well? Probably, but not as well as real wood.

MDF (should be capitalized) is just wood fibre and resin. MDF will swell badly if it gets wet, although the lamination protects it well from general spills, immersion or repeated water exposure (like a plumbing drip) will destroy it. It also shrinks really bad in very dry environments. The sawdust created when it is cut is also nasty and employees near the cutting area really need to wear respirators.

I imagine that D&D has been using it for years in their display business, so there should be no big changes associated with its use.
