Suppression of Toll-like Receptor-Mediated Innate Immune Responses at the Ocular Surface by the Membrane-associated Mucins MUC1 and MUC16

Membrane-associated mucins (MAMs) expressed on the ocular surface epithelium form a dense glycocalyx, which is hypothesized to protect the cornea and conjunctiva from external insult. In this study, the hypothesis that the MAMs MUC1 and MUC16, expressed on the apical surface of the corneal epitheliu...
