Airway goblet-cell mucus secretion
Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2001A 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.

Physiology, 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.

The viscoelastic nature of mucus secretion
Chest, 1981The 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 ...

Mucus-secreting presacral cyst
The Japanese Journal of Surgery, 1986A mucus-secreting presacral cyst was found in a 49-year-old woman who complained of dysuria. A routine rectal digital examination revealed a retrorectal mass. Diagnostic imaging demonstrated a large presacral cystic tumor. The cyst was removed through a transsacral approach.

Lacrimal Sac Mucus-Secreting Adenocarcinoma
Orbit, 2008A forty year old female presented with a swelling above the medial canthal tendon, later diagnosed as a mucus secreting adenocarcinoma. This rare carcinoma arose within an inverted papilloma lined by ciliated respiratory type columnar epithelium incorporating numerous goblet cells.

Stimulation of Nasal Mucus Secretion in the Rabbit
1982The output of radiolabelled nasal mucus glycoprotein in response to various stimuli has been studied in the rabbit. The technique is an adaptation of that used in the cat trachea (Gallagher et al., 1975) where sodium 35S-sulphate and 3H-glucose have been shown to label preferentially different glycoproteins.

COLLOID (MUCUS SECRETING) CARCINOMA OF THE CERVIX
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1971SummaryFrom 1944 to 1965, 1,274 primary carcinomas of the cervix were treated at the Chelsea Hospital for Women (Blaikley et al., 1969). Eighty‐four (6.1 per cent) were adenocarcinomas. There were only three growths in which mucus secretion was so abundant as to merit the description colloid.

Functional Anatomy of Mucus-Secreting Cells
1977Body fluids contain four major classes of high molecular weight compounds, namely, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids (as micellar aggregates), and polysaccharides. These components are found as macromolecules of protein-polysaccharide, nucleic acid-protein, and lipid-polysaccharide complexes (Table 1).
