- Porcine stomach mucin-type II is a glycoprotein derived from the gastric mucosa of pigs, playing a crucial role in forming the protective mucus layer in the stomach.
- It is an essential biomolecule for understanding mucus biology, gastric protection, and drug-mucus interactions. Its complex structure, high molecular weight, and extensive glycosylation make it a valuable model for studying mucus-related functions and developing therapeutic approaches for gastrointestinal and mucosal disorders.
