“…By interacting directly or indirectly with adhesion-associated proteins such as lectins, selectins, or integrins, they could regulate cell trafficking (cell–cell adhesion, cell–cell communication, and cell–matrix interaction). ,, Finally, they are also involved in the regulation of the cell cycle because they can induce proliferation, differentiation, or migration. ,, Among all of these functions, most are carried out by the glycans of the O-glycosylated subunit. Nevertheless, the EGF-containing mucins are involved in cell signaling and regulation processes, − in healthy conditions, from tissue regeneration, wound healing, and embryogenesis and fetus development. , …”
