What are goblet cells?

- The goblet cells can discharge viscous fluid, a thick liquid made fundamentally out of exceptionally glycosylated proteins called mucins suspended in a solution of electrolytes.
- They're more abundant in the large intestine and end of the ileum of the small intestine.
Thus, Goblet cells are modifications of columnar epithelial tissue and have a secretory function.
