Mucin‐Like Glycoproteins Modulate Interfacial Properties of a Mimetic Ocular Epithelial Surface

Abstract Dry eye disease (DED) has high personal and societal costs, but its pathology remains elusive due to intertwined biophysical and biochemical processes at the ocular surface. Specifically, mucin deficiency is reported in a subset of DED patients, but its effects on ocular interfacial propert...
