Journal ArticleDOI
Coordinated localisation of mucins and trefoil peptides in the ulcer associated cell lineage and the gastrointestinal mucosa
R J Longman,JA Douthwaite,P A Sylvester,R Poulsom,Anthony P. Corfield,M G Thomas,Nicholas A. Wright +6 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that individual trefoil peptides are uniquely localised with specific mucins in the UACL and normal gastrointestinal epithelia suggests they may assist each others' functions in protection and repair of gastrointestinal mucosa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mucinases and sialidases: their role in the pathogenesis of sexually transmitted infections in the female genital tract
TL;DR: The role of hydrolytic enzymes in the pathogenesis of sexually transmitted diseases and their effect on cervical mucus are discussed in this review.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and H2O2 Production of Vaginal Lactobacilli from Pregnant Women at High Risk of Preterm Birth and Relation with Outcome
Mark Wilks,Rebecca Wiggins,Angela Whiley,Enid Hennessy,Simon Warwick,Helen Porter,Anthony P. Corfield,Michael Millar +7 more
TL;DR: It is postulate that H2O2-producing lactobacilli are able to reduce the incidence of ascending infections of the uterus and the subsequent production of proinflammatory molecules which are important in the pathogenesis of chorioamnionitis and preterm birth.
Journal ArticleDOI
O‐glycan biosynthesis in human colorectal adenoma cells during progression to cancer
Fabienne Vavasseur,Kiran Dole,Jimmy Yang,Khushi L. Matta,Neil Myerscough,Anthony P. Corfield,Christos Paraskeva,Inka Brockhausen +7 more
TL;DR: The first report of glycosyltransferase changes in human premalignant cells developing to tumourigenic cells is reported, demonstrating that these cell lines are an excellent model to study the changes and regulation of mucin oligosaccharide biosynthesis during progression to cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mucin gene expression in Barrett's oesophagus: an in situ hybridisation and immunohistochemical study
TL;DR: While most mucin genes were downregulated in severely dysplastic and neoplastic tissues, there was upregulation of the membrane bound mucins MUC1 and MUC4.
