Interleukin-13 maintains the stemness of conjunctival epithelial cell cultures prepared from human limbal explants.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
To use human limbal explants as an alternative source for generating conjunctival epithelium and to determine the effect of interleukin-13 (IL-13) on goblet cell number, mucin expression, and stemness. Human limbal explants prepared from 17 corneoscleral

Epidermal Growth Factor Removal or Tyrphostin AG1478 Treatment Reduces Goblet Cells & Mucus Secretion of Epithelial Cells from Asthmatic Children Using the Air-Liquid Interface Model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Epithelial remodelling in asthma is characterised by goblet cell hyperplasia and mucus hypersecretion for which no therapies exist. Differentiated bronchial air-liquid interface cultures from asthmatic children display high goblet cell numbers. Epidermal

Is the Intestinal Goblet Cell a Major Immune Cell? [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2014
Recent reports indicate that both the inflammasome (Wlodarska et al., 2014) and autophagy (Patel et al., 2013) pathways in goblet cells control mucin secretion, defects in which are linked to difficulties in clearing pathogenic bacteria and maintaining intestinal homeostasis and control colitis.

Staphylococcus aureus activates the NLRP3 inflammasome in human and rat conjunctival goblet cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The conjunctiva is a moist mucosal membrane that is constantly exposed to an array of potential pathogens and triggers of inflammation. The NACHT, leucine rich repeat (LRR), and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) is a Nod-like receptor that can ...

Functional biology of intestinal goblet cells

open access: yes, 1991
Goblet cells reside throughout the length of the small and large intestine and are responsible for the production and maintenance of the protective mucus blanket by synthesizing and secreting high-molecular-weight glycoproteins known as mucins.

Changes with age in density of goblet cells in the small intestine of broiler chicks

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2020
Goblet cells secrete mucin 2 (Muc2), which is a major component of the mucus that lines the intestinal tract and creates a protective barrier between pathogens and the intestinal epithelial cells and thus are important for chick health. The objectives of

Detecting Intestinal Goblet Cells of the Broadgilled Hagfish Eptatretus cirrhatus (Forster, 1801): A Confocal Microscopy Evaluation

open access: yesBiology, 2022
The fish intestine operates as a complicated interface between the organism and the environment, providing biological and mechanical protections as a result of a viscous layer of mucus released by goblet cells, which serves as a barrier against bacteria,

IFNγ reduces viability in human conjunctival goblet cells in vitro

open access: yes, 2022
PurposeConjunctival goblets cells play an important role in the homeostasis of the ocular surface and are known to be affected by inflammatory cytokines in diseases of the ocular surface.

ON THE SITE OF SULFATION IN COLONIC GOBLET CELLS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1964
The location of bound S35 in the goblet cell of the rat colon at time points from 2 to 60 minutes after administration of S35 as sodium sulfate has been observed in vivo and in vitro by radioautographic techniques. Grains were first observed by electron microscopy over the stacked lamellae of the paranuclear part of the Golgi apparatus.

The influence of various feed additives on the development of duodenal goblet cells in broilers [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
A comparative study was carried out on the effect of three drugs on the development of goblet cells in the duodenum of broilers. In the first experiment, day-old broilers Smena-8 were divided into 4 groups.
