The impact of oligosaccharide content, glycosidic linkages and lactose content of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) on the expression of mucus-related genes in goblet cells

Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are molecules known to impact goblet cell function and mucus composition. Our results show that their molecular structure have a direct effect on goblet cells and impact mucus synthesis-related genes.
