Liquid Nails is glue. I like to use Carpenters Glue. Any good wood glue should do. Use 1.5" wood screws to hold the joints in place while the glue dries. Space the screws about 5-6" apart and stay away from the end to avoid splitting. Also be sure to drill pilot holes for your screws, again to avoid splitting the MDF.

As well, a nice bead of silicone on the inside seams is a good. Avoids letting air seep out.
