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.

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 ...

Mucin-1: a promising pan-cancer therapeutic target [PDF]
Mucin1 or MUC1 (also known as CD227, EMA, MCD, MAM6, PEM, PUM, KL-6, CA 27.29/CA 15-3) is a highly glycosylated transmembrane mucin family member protein that is overexpressed in various solid or hematological cancers.

Novel roles for mucin 1 in the kidney [PDF]
Recent studies in the kidney have revealed that the well characterized tumor antigen mucin 1 (MUC1/Muc1) also has numerous functions in the normal and injured kidney.Mucin 1 is a transmembrane mucin with a robust glycan-dependent apical targeting signal and efficient recycling from endosomes.

Immunohistochemical Expression of HER2/neu, Ki-67 and MUC1 in Benign and Malignant Gall Bladder Lesions and its Association with Clinicopathological Parameters [PDF]
Introduction: Gall Bladder Carcinoma (GBC) is a diagnostic and a therapeutic challenge. Although it is increasing, chronic cholecystitis remains the most worldwide gall bladder lesions, harbouring many epithelial changes that may end in carcinoma ...

Mucin 1 is a transmembrane glycoprotein which overexpresses cancer-specific epitopes (MUC1-CE) on pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. As PDAC is a low survival and highly aggressive malignancy, developing radioimmunoconjugates capable of ...

Mucin 16, the dimerization copycat of mucin 1?
Mucin 1 (MUC1), a transmembrane mucin that serves a protective role by inhibiting extracellular pathogens from entering epithelial cells is also implicated in forming cancerous cells through dimer formation. Upon expression and localization in the membrane, MUC1 proteins form cysteine‐dependent homodimers through the juxtamembrane domain CQC motif. The

Irradiation Alters the Expression of MUC1, CD44 and Hyaluronan in Oral Mucosal Epithelium
Purpose: It is well established that cancer cells exploit aberrant synthesis of mucin 1 (MUC1) and hyaluronan (HA) synthesis along with HA’s physiological cell surface receptor CD44.

89Zr-Labeled AR20.5: A MUC1-Targeting ImmunoPET Probe
High expression levels of the tumor-associated antigen MUC1 have been correlated with tumor aggressiveness, poor response to therapy, and poor survival in several tumor types, including breast, pancreatic, and epithelial ovarian cancer. Herein, we report
