Protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs) aid protein folding and assembly by catalyzing formation and shuffling of cysteine disulfide bonds in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Many members of the PDI family are expressed in mammals but the roles of specific PDIs in vivo are poorly understood. A recent hom...

The gastrointestinal mucus is a hydrogel that lines the luminal side of the gastrointestinal epithelium, offering barrier protection from pathogens and lubrication of the intraluminal contents. These barrier properties likewise affect nutrients and drugs that need to penetrate the mucus to reach the...

Colorectal cancer risk is associated with diets high in red meat. Heme, the pigment of red meat, induces cytotoxicity of colonic contents and elicits epithelial damage and compensatory hyperproliferation, leading to hyperplasia. Here we explore the possible causal role of the gut microbiota in heme-...

Modulation of mucus production by the human ecto- and endo-cervical epithelium by steroid hormones and associated interactions with commensal microbiome play a central role in the physiology and pathophysiology of the female reproductive tract. However, most of our knowledge about these interactions...

Gastrointestinal (GI) mucus is continuously secreted and lines the entire length of the GI tract. Essential for health, it keeps the noxious luminal content away from the epithelium and propels forward the digesta. The aim of our study was to characterize the composition and structures of mucus thro...

Cervical mucus is a viscous fluid functioning as a uterine cervix plug. It is formed and produced by cervical glands located in the cervix. During ovulation, cervical mucus starts to become less viscous, which is a good window for non-invasive sampling. Our study focuses on the proteomic characteriz...

This work investigates the comparison of protein profiles in the Octopus vulgaris skin mucus of wild, aquarium-maintained, and senescent specimens to identify potential welfare biomarkers, using tandem mass tag (TMT) in an Orbitrap Eclipse Tribrid mass spectrometer to create a reference dataset from...

Animal mucosal barriers constantly interact with the external environment and this interaction is markedly different in aquatic and terrestrial environments. Transitioning from water to land was a critical step in vertebrate evolution but the immune adaptations that mucosal barriers such as the skin...

Two C57BL/6 mice colonies maintained in two rooms in the same specific pathogen free (SPF) facility were found to have different gut microbiota and a mucus phenotype specific for each colony. The thickness and growth of the colon mucus was similar in the two colonies, but one colony had mucus not pe...
