Macro and Micro rheological characterization of Human bronchial mucus

Résumé

The mucociliary function of the bronchial epithelium ensures the continuous clearance of the respiratory system. This function relies on two main elements: mucus and cilia beating. We perform here a rheological characterization of mucus samples extracted from ALI (Air-liquid interface) cultures of bronchial epithelium. Our approach combines macro- and micro-rheology techniques with the aim of quantifying the mucus viscoelastic properties at different length scales (from the size of bronchial cilia up to the scale on which mucus is transported). In addition, this methodology allows us to compare the rheological behavior of mucus samples corresponding to different pathologies.
