Mucin Biopolymers and Their Barrier Function at Airway Surfaces
In the lung, the airway epithelium produces secreted and tethered mucin biopolymers to form a mucus hydrogel layer and a surface-attached polymer brush layer. These layers work in concert to facilitate the cilia-mediated transport of mucus for the capture and clearance of inhaled materials to preven...
