Airway Mucus Secretion

open access: yesPhysiology, 1990
Mucus secretion into the airways is mainly under vagal cholinergic control, and its volume and composition are modulated by sympathetic (adrenergic) and peptidergic mechanisms. Inflammatory mediators also change the secretion. The various compositions of mucus have been little explored, and the importance of its changes in disease is little understood.

Airway goblet-cell mucus secretion

Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2001
A mucus hypersecretory phenotype is a dominant characteristic of chronic airways diseases such as chronic bronchitis and asthma. This phenotype develops following chronic exposure of the respiratory tract to particulate matter, allergens, irritants and/or pathogens.

The viscoelastic nature of mucus secretion

Chest, 1981
The viscoelastic properties of mucus have been described together with the methods which can be used to evaluate such a rheologically complex system. Methods which do not take into account the viscoelastic nature of mucus have been criticized and it is concluded that only creep or oscillatory tests yield significant correlations with mucociliary ...
