Transcellular thiocyanate transport by human airway epithelia

Human airway mucosa synthesizes and secretes lactoperoxidase (LPO). As H(2)O(2) and thiocyanate (SCN(−)) are also present, a functional LPO antibacterial defence system exists in the airways. SCN(−) concentrations in several epithelial secretions are higher than in serum, although the mechanisms of...
