Role of Mucin‐1 in Carcinomas

The FASEB Journal, 2020
Mucin 1 (MUC1) is a large, heavy O‐glycosylated mucin glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 250 to 500 kDa, depending on the level of glycosylation, and extends 200–500 nm from the cell surface. MUC1 spans the cell membrane at the apical surface of normal simple epithelia and the surfaces of some ...

Advances in the Applications of Mucin 1 in Cancer Therapy

Journal of Biomedical Nanotechnology, 2023
Mucin 1 belongs to the membrane-binding mucoprotein subfamily, which is normally a highly O-glycosylated polymer protein that is mainly expressed in epithelial cells and some hematopoietic cells. Mucin 1 was overexpressed in many cancer tissues compared to normal tissue with a lower degree of glycosylation.

Mucin 1 deficiency mediates corticosteroid insensitivity in asthma

Allergy, 2018
AbstractBackgroundThe loss of corticosteroid efficacy is an important issue in severe asthma management and may lead to poor asthma control and deterioration of airflow. Recent data indicate that Mucin 1 (MUC1) membrane mucin can mediate corticosteroid efficacy in chronic rhinosinusitis, but the role of MUC1 in uncontrolled severe asthma is unknown ...

Biology, Significance and Immune Signaling of Mucin 1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Current Cancer Drug Targets, 2022
Abstract:Mucin 1 (MUC 1) is a highly glycosylated tumor-associated antigen (TAA) overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This protein plays a critical role in various immune-mediated signaling pathways at its transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, leading to immune evasion and metastasis in HCC.

Update on Mucin-1 immunotherapy in cancer: a clinical perspective

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2015
Mucin 1 (MUC1) is particularly well suited as a cancer immunotherapy target due to the elevated protein expression and aberrant forms associated with malignancy. A variety of therapeutic strategies have been explored, including antibodies intended to induce cancer cell destruction, and vaccinations with peptides, tumor extracts, and gene expression ...

Cancer specific Mucin‐1 glycoforms are expressed on multiple myeloma

British Journal of Haematology, 2006
SummaryPresent therapies cannot cure the large majority of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and therefore new treatment strategies are imperative. This study analysed the different glycosylation profiles of Mucin‐1 (MUC1) on MM and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells using a series of anti‐MUC1 antibodies.

Aptamer-Gated Ion Channel for Ultrasensitive Mucin 1 Detection

Analytical Chemistry, 2021
Detection of cancer markers is important for early diagnosis and timely treatment of cancer. In this study, we fabricated a tailorable gold nanofilm-anodized aluminum oxide (Au-AAO) ion channel through nanoparticle self-assembly and proposed a highly sensitive and selective Mucin 1 (MUC1) detection method.

CTL in mice immunized with human mucin 1 are MHC-restricted

The Journal of Immunology, 1995
Abstract CTLs that recognize tumor Ags have been described in mice and humans, particularly for melanoma. These CTLs are CD8+, which is MHC-restricted. In contrast, in human carcinomas of the breast, pancreas, or ovary, and in multiple myeloma, CD8+ CTLs have been described that lyse targets expressing human MUC1 in a non-MHC ...

Mucin-1-related T cell infiltration in colorectal carcinoma

Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy, 1996
Mucins (MUC) are highly glycosylated molecules widely expressed on epithelia of different origins, including colonic mucosa. Altered glycosylation processes in tumour cells result in the exposure of normally cryptic peptide epitopes, which may then be recognized as tumour-specific antigens.
