Abstract:
:Observations indicate three different tissues of origin for ovarian carcinoma. The ovarian surface epithelium, oviduct epithelium (TSE), and derivates of the Müllerian duct. This chapter discusses the TSE-related ovarian carcinogenesis (exfoliation theory). Recent evidence from prophylactic removed ovaries and Fallopian tubes shows (pre)neoplastic lesions primarily within the tubes and not in the ovaries, putting another light on the malignant potential of the tubal epithelium and possibly ovarian carcinogenesis.

abstract::In summary, we have demonstrated that the ocular surface epithelia express at least three mucin genes. We suggest that the gel-forming mucin MUC5AC is a major mucin forming the mucus gel of the tear film. We further suggest that MUC1 facilitates the spread of the MUC5-containing mucus on the ocular surface and, along ...
