Upregulation of MUC5AC by VEGF in human primary bronchial epithelial cells: implications for asthma

BACKGROUND: Airway mucus hypersecretion is an important pathophysiological feature in asthma. Mucins are glycoproteins that are mainly responsible for the viscoelastic property of mucus, and MUC5AC is a major mucin glycoprotein that is overproduced in asthma. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF...
