Mucins represent the main components of gel-like secretions, or mucus, secreted by mucosae or some exocrine glands. These high-molecular-weight glycoproteins are characterized by the large number of carbohydrate chains O-glycosidically linked to the peptide. The determination of mucin molecular weight and conformation has been controversial for several

Mucins and mucin binding proteins in colorectal cancer
Cancer and Metastasis Reviews, 2004Mucins are high-molecular weight epithelial glycoproteins with a high content of clustered oligosaccharides O-glycosidically linked to tandem repeat peptides rich in threonine, serine, and proline. There are two structurally and functionally distinct classes of mucins: secreted gel-forming mucins (MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC5B, and MUC6) and transmembrane mucins

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1984
This is a clinicopathologic study of six patients with mucinous syringometaplasia, which was diagnosed histologically. Biopsies revealed a focal invagination of the epidermis lined by squamous epithelium, with one or several eccrine ducts leading into the vagination. The eccrine duct epithelium contained mucin-laden goblet cells, and there was mucinous

A variety of mucoactive medications are used to treat chronic lung disease. When evaluating the role of the cough, it must be considered as an important protective mechanism. Therefore, it may be more important to improve the effectiveness of cough than to suppress or eliminate a chronic cough in patients with chronic lung disease.

Mucins and Immune Reactions to Mucins in Ulcerative Colitis
Digestion, 2001Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease of undetermined etiology. Mucins, mainly produced by goblet cells, protect colon cells from various kinds of stress. Alteration in the quality or quantity of mucins may be the cause of the disease. Another possible cause is immune reactions to colonic cells.

Yamamota and Oshima in 1932 extracted a crystalline anthocyanin coloring material from the flowers of Hibiscus sabdariffa which they called hibiscin. In 1976 El-Aaser and Gowali successfully used hibiscin as a stain for DNA on frozen sections. This paper reports on the staining capacity of this dye for epithelial mucin in paraffin sections.

Mucin Purification and Printing Natural Mucin Microarrays
2022Mucin glycosylation is the key facilitator of microbial attachment and nutrition and it varies according to biological location, health and disease status, microbiome composition, infection, and multiple other factors. Mucin glycans have also been reported to attenuate pathogen virulence and mediate biofilm dispersal.

AbstractA 15‐year‐old boy first noticed multiple firm papules on his right upper chest two years before presenting to our clinic. These papules were densely distributed and showed epidermal nevus‐like linear arrangement at some sites. The number, size, and distribution of these papules remained unchanged for one year of our observation.

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1991
Mucins produced by goblet cells of the respiratory mucosa are condensed while stored in secretory granules. Mucin condensation and its decondensation upon exocytosis can be explained by the theory of polymer gel phase transition. After the opening of a secretory pore, Ca2+ inside the granule is exchanged for extracellular Na+. Na/Ca exchange triggers a

Mucosal surfaces are exposed to the external environment and pathogens and are therefore protected by a secreted layer of mucus rich in mucin glycoproteins, which are the main components of mucus. Mucus provides physical protection and hydration, excludes pathogens, and is a reservoir for antimicrobial molecules.
