  MUC1 expression and molecular interactions in the oral cavity 

  Wang, Li (Boston University, 2004)

  Mucins play an important protective and lubricative function in the oral cavity. They protect hard and soft tissues from desiccation, mechanical abrasion and exogenous insults. These functions are related to the structural ...

  Molecular cloning and characterization of multiple transcripts of the hamster ALG7 gene 

  Huang, George T.-J. (Boston University, 1992)

  The ALG7 gene encodes the tunicamycin-sensitive, dolichol-P-dependent Nacetylglucosamine- 1-phosphate transferase, GPT, that catalyzes the synthesis of the first dolichollinked sugar, Dol-PP-GlcNAc, in the N-glycosylation ...

  Bone phenotype of lysyl oxidase isoform knockout mice & in vitro expression of lysyl oxidase proenzyme 

  Alsofi, Loai A. (Boston University, 2008)

  Lysyl oxidases constitute a family of enzymes responsible for the formation of cross links in collagen and elastin. These enzymes have also been linked to pathological fibrosis. The importance of collagen in the structural ...

  The Hippo signaling pathway is required for salivary gland development and its dysregulation is associated with Sjögren-like disease 

  Samad-Zadeh, Arman (Boston University, 2014)

  Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic, multisystem inflammatory disorder of multifactorial etiology resulting in loss of secretory function in the exocrine glands including salivary and lacrimal. Even though the pathophysiology ...

  Detection of oral transglutaminases and their relevance in celiac disease 

  Shen, Shiqian (Boston University, 2015)

  Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by enteropathy caused by ingested gluten. Human transglutaminase 2 (TG 2) localized in the lamina propria of the small intestine modifies gluten by deamidating ...
