Mucin-1 and its relation to grade, stage and survival in ovarian carcinoma patients

BMC Cancer, 2012
Background Mucin-1 is known to be over-expressed by various human carcinomas and is shed into the circulation where it can be detected in patient’s serum by specific anti-Mucin-1 antibodies, such as the tumour marker assays CA 15–3 and CA 27.29.

Pro-Resolving Mediator Annexin A1 Regulates Intracellular Ca2+ and Mucin Secretion in Cultured Goblet Cells Suggesting a New Use in Inflammatory Conjunctival Diseases

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
The amount of mucin secreted by conjunctival goblet cells is regulated to ensure the optimal level for protection of the ocular surface. Under physiological conditions lipid specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM) are essential for maintaining tissue ...

MUC1 positive cutaneous metastasis with transepidermal elimination from a breast carcinoma [PDF]

, 2013
Breast cancer is the most common cause of cutaneous metastases from internal malignancies. Generally, the neoplastic cells are located in the dermis or hypodermis, while a finding of transepidermal elimination on cutaneous metastases is exceptional.

MUC1 aptamer-tethered H40-TEPA-PEG nanoconjugates for targeted siRNA-delivery and gene silencing in breast cancer cells

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
With a prevalence of 12.5% of all new cancer cases annually, breast cancer stands as the most common form of cancer worldwide. The current therapies utilized for breast cancer are constrained and ineffective in addressing the condition.

Incessant Ovulation, Mucin 1 Immunity, and Risk for Ovarian Cancer [PDF]

Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, 2007
Abstract Background: Risk for ovarian cancer correlates directly with “ovulatory years or cycles” estimated from time not pregnant, breast-feeding, or using oral contraceptives. Recently, we reported that several factors known to reduce ovarian cancer risk may operate by inducing antibodies against mucin 1 (MUC1), a glycoprotein ...
