Collection: MUC3A

MUCIN3A (MUC3A) glycopeptides are key components of the MUC3A mucin found in epithelial tissues, crucial for mucosal protection and lubrication. They are being studied for their potential as biomarkers in breast, ovarian, gastrointestinal and respiratory cancers due to their altered glycosylation patterns that may indicate disease progression. Moreover, research is exploring MUC3A glycopeptides for developing vaccines aimed at eliciting immune responses against cancers showing abnormal MUC3A expression or glycosylation, demonstrating their utility in both diagnostics and therapeutic strategies.
