| Biochem/physiol Actions: | MUC5B is salivary mucin that might contribute to the lubrication, hydration, pathogen exclusion, and viscoelastic properties of the whole saliva. The protein acts as a marker of mucous gland cells. Mouse MUC5B plays a vital role in maintaining immune homeostasis in the lungs. It is also involved in preventing infections in the airways and middle ear by facilitating mucociliary clearance (MCC). Mutation in the MUC5B gene leads to the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Overexpression of the gene stimulates aggressive behavior of breast cancer MCF7 cells. |
