The role of mucin 1 in respiratory diseases [PDF]
Recent evidence has demonstrated that mucin 1 (MUC1) is involved in many pathological processes that occur in the lung. MUC1 is a transmembrane protein mainly expressed by epithelial and hematopoietic cells.

Estrogen-Regulated Proline-Rich Acidic Protein 1 in Endometrial Epithelial Cells Affects Embryo Implantation by Regulating Mucin 1 in Mice [PDF]
This study explores the regulatory role of proline-rich acidic protein 1 (Prap1) effects on embryo implantation. A high estrogen model and ovariectomized mice were employed to demonstrate that estrogen regulates Prap1 expression.

Bmi-1 regulates mucin levels and mucin O-glycosylation in the submandibular gland of mice.
Mucins, the major components of salivary mucus, are large glycoproteins abundantly modified with O-glycans. Mucins present on the surface of oral tissues contribute greatly to the maintenance of oral hygiene by selectively adhering to the surfaces of ...

Baseline Blood Levels of Mucin-1 Are Associated with Crucial On-Treatment Adverse Outcomes in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Receiving Antifibrotic Pirfenidone [PDF]
Mucin-1 is a multi-functional glycoprotein expressed by type II alveolocytes and may be detectable in the circulation following pulmonary fibrosis. The prognostic utility of baseline pre-treatment blood levels of mucin-1 in patients with idiopathic ...

Transmembrane Mucin 1 Blocks Fluorescein Ingress to Corneal Epithelium. [PDF]
To determine the role of transmembrane mucins in blocking fluorescein ingress to the corneal epithelium and its deficiency in contributing to corneal fluorescein punctate staining.A dry eye model was established by extirpating lacrimal and Harderian glands in rabbits to correlate the expression of mucins with fluorescein-stained areas on the corneal ...

Expression of Mucins in Different Entities of Salivary Gland Cancer: Highest Expression of Mucin-1 in Salivary Duct Carcinoma : Mucin-1 - highest expression in Salivary Duct Carcinoma. [PDF]
AbstractTherapeutic options for advanced salivary gland cancer (SGC) are rare. Therefore, it was the aim of this study to investigate the extent and intensity of Mucin-1 (MUC1), Mucin-16 (MUC16), and Mucin-5AC (MUC5AC) as potential molecular targets using immunohistochemistry.

ABSTRACT Despite extensive research efforts in prostate cancer for the last several decades, the disease remains a leading cause of cancer death in men in the developed world. A typical feature of prostate cancer initiation and progression is the landscape of genetic alterations, which changes the expression patterns of numerous molecules in prostate ...
