  Abstract: Muco-obstructive respiratory disease is caused by changing normal biophysical properties of mucus including alteration of mucin concentration, ion composition and airway surface hydration. Flavonoids are one type of polyphenols which regulate mucin gene expression and consequently inhibit mucus secretion. Thus, this review aimed to discuss the effects of different flavonoids on regulation of various airways mucin gene expression and inhibition of the production of a major airway mucin core protein …
