ERdj5 protects goblet cells from endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis under inflammatory conditions [PDF]
Inflammatory bowel disease: A protective enzyme in intestinal goblet cells Studies of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in mice reveal the role of an enzyme that assists the degradation of mis-folded proteins in the ‘goblet’ cells involved in producing ...

Epigenetic modifier balances Mapk and Wnt signalling in differentiation of goblet and Paneth cells
The histone methyltransferase Mll1 controls intestinal secretory cell fate by promoting Wnt-driven Paneth and restricting Mapk-dependent goblet cell differentiation through regulation of Gata4/6 transcription factors Differentiation and lineage ...

Mucus and the Goblet Cell [PDF]
The discovery of an inner mucus layer normally impervious to bacteria has changed our way of understanding the interaction between commensal bacteria and the host epithelial cells. This inner colon mucus layer is rapidly renewed and converted into the outer mucus layer by host controlled endogenous proteolytic processing.

Goblet Cell Carcinoids of the Appendix [PDF]
Goblet cell carcinoid (GCC) tumors are a rare subgroup of neuroendocrine tumors almost exclusively originating in the appendix. The tumor most often presents in the fifth or sixth decade with a clinical picture of appendicitis or in advanced cases an abdominal mass associated with abdominal pain.

Povidone iodine treatment is deleterious to human ocular surface conjunctival cells in culture
Objective To determine the effect of povidone iodine (PI), an antiseptic commonly used prior to ocular surgery, on viability of mixed populations of conjunctival stratified squamous and goblet cells, purified conjunctival goblet cells and purified ...

Vasoactive intestinal peptide regulates ileal goblet cell production in mice
Innervation of the intestinal mucosa has gained more attention with demonstrations of tuft and enteroendocrine cell innervation. However, the role(s) these fibers play in maintaining the epithelial and mucus barriers are still poorly understood.

Clinical and morphological analysis of dysplasia in Barrett's esophagus and columnar-lined esophagus
Background: Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a precan-cerous disease of the esophagus. The risk of adenocarcinoma in BE patients increases with the extension of segment length and with the presence of dysplasia.

Sox2 is required for maintenance and differentiation of bronchiolar Clara, ciliated, and goblet cells. [PDF]
The bronchioles of the murine lung are lined by a simple columnar epithelium composed of ciliated, Clara, and goblet cells that together mediate barrier function, mucociliary clearance and innate host defense, vital for pulmonary homeostasis.

Goblet Cell Carcinoma of the Appendix: A Case Report on Goblet Cell Carcinoid
Goblet cell carcinoid of the appendix is a rare neoplasm with histological features of both neuroendocrine and adenocarcinomas. The combination of its aggressive behavior, infrequent occurrence, and variable clinical presentation convolutes the management of this tumor. We report the case of a 75-year-old female presenting with acute appendicitis.
