mucin

They produce neutral mucin and develop into a new small gland.

This gene encodes a member of the mucin protein family.

It is sometimes regarded as a mixture of albumin and mucin.

Mucin helps protect and wet the surface of the cornea.

The dilated spaces seen here are filled with mucin.

They also are responsible for secreting mucin into tears.

Radiation therapy has been associated with increased mucin production in hair follicles.

They also discovered genes devoted to processing some materials produced by the human cells like mucin.

The tumor can rupture, spilling mucin into the abdominal cavity.

The layer of mucin allows tears to glide evenly across the eye's surface.

They contain a large amount of mucin, which pushes the nucleus to the cell periphery.

MUC16 is a member of the mucin family glycoproteins.

It is currently considered a variant of solid adenocarcinoma with mucin production.

In mucicarmine stains, deep red mucin found within goblet cell bodies.

Cholesterol clefts, fibrin, and mucin may also be present in areas of necrobiosis.

It can also be used for the detection of cartilage, mucin and mast cell granules.

A biopsy of the affected skin reveals mucin in the mid- to lower- dermis.

The tear film is composed of three layers: the lipid, aqueous, and mucin.

Researchers are studying tamarind as a possible treatment for dry eyes because it contains a chemical that is similar to mucin found in the eye.

The coding sequence on the mucin core protein recognised by SM3 is relatively long.

Tannin-binding capacity of salivary mucin is directly related to its proline content.

They are responsible for secreting mucin, a proteinous substance that makes up the inner layer of tears.

As a mucin, MUC4 also alters adhesive properties of the cell.

The gene is similar to members of the mucin and the glycosyl hydrolase 18 gene families.

The mucin clot test is a very old approach to determining if an inflammatory infiltrate is present.
