Goblet cells are part of the epithelium lining of lungs and intestines of mammals. They secrete mucus that helps carry away body wastes. Goblet cells are also part of the epidermis of fish, giving fish scales a slippery coating of mucus.

A gland goblet cell produces a slimy material called mucus. The mucus moves out of the cells and onto the inner lining of the gullet (oesophagus). Here the mucus acts like a lubricant, cutting down friction between food and the lining of the gullet. :)
