英文摘要
The objective of this research project is to understand the
molecular mechanisms responsible for the condensation of the
mucin polymer network inside secretory granules; its expansion
upon release from the cell; and its final equilibrium swelling to
form the mucus gel. The approach is to use the established
knowledge of polymer gel physics that has been learned from
artificial polymer gels to verify if the mucus gel follows the same
molecular mechanisms as other polymer gels and get a hold of the
fundamental physical laws that govern the storage, release and
final equilibrium swelling of mucins. We have successfully used
this approach during the last ten years. We have developed the
appropriate experimental models and methods to investigate the
molecular conformation and topology of the mucus gel; we have
established that the swelling in mucus is a critical mechanism to
control mucus rheology and that like in other polyionic gels,
mucus swelling is governed by a Donnan equilibrium process.
Predictions based on polymer gel physics allowed us to confirm
the existence and define the role of calcium as the cations
responsible for charge shielding in condensed presecretory mucins.
Preliminary experiments from our laboratory show that mucins,
like other gels, can undergo a typical polymer gel phase transition
that could eventually explain the physical mechanisms of
condensation and expansion of mucin during storage and releases
in and from secretory cells.
Support from this grant will be used to further investigate the
role of ions and polyions in the swelling of mucins upon release
from goblet cells in culture; to further identify the cations
responsible for the shielding of mucin charges during storage
inside secretory granules; and to further verify and characterize
the novel finding of a polymer gel phase transition that we have
recently discovered in mucin gels.
