This project investigates the lubrication properties of mucins and mucus gels, which are crucial for protecting and lubricating biological tissues. It aims to understand the mechanisms of lubrication and their implications for health and engineering applications.
Mucins are a family of high-molecular-weight glycoproteins and a major macromolecular constituent in slimy mucus gels that are covering the surface of internal biological tissues. A primary role of mucus gels in biological systems is known to be the protection and lubrication of underlying epithelial cell surfaces.
This is intuitively well appreciated by both science community and the public, and yet detailed lubrication properties of mucins and mucus gels have remained largely unexplored to d…
