Proteomic Analysis of Pure Human Airway Gland Mucus Reveals a Large Component of Protective Proteins

Airway submucosal glands contribute to innate immunity and protect the lungs by secreting mucus, which is required for mucociliary clearance and which also contains antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-proteolytic and anti-oxidant proteins. We stimulated glands in tracheal trimmings from three lun...
