The role of goblet cells in viral pathogenesis [PDF]
The FEBS Journal, 2021 Goblet cells are specialized epithelial cells that are essential to the formation of the mucus barriers in the airways and intestines. Armed with an arsenal of defenses, goblet cells can rapidly respond to infection but must balance this response with maintaining homeostasis.

Sox2 is required for maintenance and differentiation of bronchiolar Clara, ciliated, and goblet cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 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.

Povidone iodine treatment is deleterious to human ocular surface conjunctival cells in culture
BMJ Open Ophthalmology, 2020 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
Physiological Reports, 2020 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
Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2020 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.
