The membrane mucin MUC4 (human) is abundantly expressed in many epithelia, where it is
proposed to play a protective role, and is overexpressed in some epithelial tumors. Studies …

Tears are a complex fluid that continuously cover the exposed surface of the eye, namely the
cornea and conjunctiva. Tears are secreted in response to the multitude of environmental …

Muc4 (also called sialomucin complex), the rat homolog of human MUC4, is a heterodimeric
glycoprotein complex that consists of a peripheral O‐glycosylated mucin subunit, ASGP‐1 …

purpose. To evaluate human ocular surface epithelium and tear fluid for the presence of
sialomucin complex (MUC4), a high-molecular-weight heterodimeric glycoprotein composed …

Sialomucin complex (SMC) is a large, heterodimeric glycoprotein complex composed of
mucin (ASGP-1) and transmembrane (ASGP-2) subunits and expressed abundantly on the …

Abstract Muc4/sialomucin complex (SMC) is a multifunctional glycoprotein complex which
can repress apoptosis in transfected tumor cells. Its transmembrane subunit acts as an …

The membrane mucin Muc4, also called sialomucin complex (SMC), is a heterodimeric
complex of two subunits, ASGP-1 and ASGP-2, derived from a single gene. It is produced by …

In this study, we have investigated the biosynthesis and processing of GP85 (Pgp-1/CD44),
a lymphoma transmembrane glycoprotein known to contain ankyrin-binding site (s). Using a …

purpose. To characterize the visual fields of subjects with migraine headaches using static
and temporal modulation perimetry. methods. Sixteen subjects with migraines (15 with aura …

purpose. Membrane-associated mucins present in the apical cells of the ocular surface
epithelium (MUC1,-4, and-16) are believed to contribute to the maintenance of a hydrated …
