Mucopolysaccharides1
  • A mucoprotein is a glycoprotein composed primarily of mucopolysaccharides. (wikipedia.org)
Mucus5
  • Mucoproteins are the proteins that are the building blocks of mucus, which is a protective barrier to the epithelia of cells. (wikipedia.org)
  • Classic mucolytic medications these medications change the disulfide bond by reducing it to a thiol bond, thus thoroughly breaking down the mucoproteins and making the mucus more manageable. (wikipedia.org)
  • The effect of ethinyl estradiol and drospirenone-containing oral contraceptives upon mucoprotein content of cervical mucus. (wikipedia.org)
  • It can also be referred to a group of mucoproteins found in certain types of cysts (etc.), resembling mucus. (ipfs.io)
  • NAC works on thinning mucus by directly splitting the sulfur linkages that bind the mucoproteins together in thick mucus. (iherb.com)
Nucleic1
  • FLUIMUCIL A contains N-acetylcysteine (NAC), which exerts an intense mucolytic action on mucous and mucopurulent secretions, by depolymerizing the mucoprotein complexes and the nucleic acids, which confer viscosity to the vitreous and purulent component of the sputum and of other secretions. (ecrater.com)
Albumin2
  • Additionally, 'mucoprotein' and 'serum albumin' can also be considered synonyms of albumen. (thesaurus.net)
  • Other urethral plugs are composed almost totally of matrix (mucoproteins, albumin, globulins, cells, debris) or sloughed tissue and blood. (dvm360.com)
Proteins1
  • Mucoproteins are composed of o-linked carbohydrates as well as highly glycosylated proteins, which are held together by disulfide bonds. (wikipedia.org)
Viscosity1
  • Acetylcysteine may decrease the viscosity of secretions by splitting of disulphide bonds in mucoproteins. (farmacoinc.com)
Found2
  • Mucoproteins can be found throughout the body, including the gastrointestinal tract, reproductive organs, airways, and the synovial fluid of the knees. (wikipedia.org)
  • Podoplanin is a Mr 38000 membrane mucoprotein that was originally detected on the surface of rat glomerular epithelial cells (podocytes) and was found to be linked to fl attening of foot processes that occur in glomerular diseases. (listarfish.it)
Group1
  • The active component of DTT is a sulphydryl group, which reduces the mucoprotein cross-linking disulfide bonds. (thomassci.com)
Body1
  • This enzyme helps prevent the accumulation of mucoprotein (partially digested protein) in the body and lymphatic system. (wilmingtonclinic.com)
Depolymerization3
  • Chemonucleolysis involved the injection of therapeutic doses of chymopapain into the intervertebral disc space to induce depolymerization of mucoprotein. (cdc.gov)
  • The mucolytic effect is associated with depolymerization and splitting of mucoproteins and mucopolysaccharide fibres, which leads to reduction in the viscosity of mucus. (medicscientist.com)
  • The action of acetylcysteine ² ¹ ² ¹is associated with the ability of the free sulfhydryl group to cleave intramolecular and intermolecular disulfide bonds of sputum glycoprotein aggregates, which leads to the depolymerization of mucoproteins, having a strong thinning effect and reducing the viscosity of mucus. (buy-pharmacy.com)
Plasmalemma2
Primarily1
  • Hyaline casts are composed grand haven primarily rochester of a mucoprotein tamm-horsfall protein secreted by tubule cells. (aitzol.com)
Mucolytic1
  • Classic mucolytic medications these medications change the disulfide bond by reducing it to a thiol bond, thus thoroughly breaking down the mucoproteins and making the mucus more manageable. (wikipedia.org)
Substance2
  • These fibers are suspended in a gel-like substance called mucoprotein. (jeaken.com)
  • The inner layer is soft and made of mucoprotein gel, a substance that resembles jelly. (anilkesanimd.com)
Cells1
  • Cells expressing the lymphatic endothelial mucoprotein podoplanin in ACEI-treated animals were increased 18-fold compared to controls suggesting compensation. (diva-portal.org)
Effect1
  • The effect of ethinyl estradiol and drospirenone-containing oral contraceptives upon mucoprotein content of cervical mucus. (wikipedia.org)
Types1
  • The proportion of matrix, typically low molecular weight mucoproteins, is greater than in other types of calcium-based stones and is thought to protect the bacteria from antimicrobials. (medscape.com)
Small1
  • It is believed that glutamine promotes the manufacture of protective mucoproteins that line the stomach and small intestine. (iherb.com)
