  2. Bromelain (pharmacology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromelain_(pharmacology)

    The bromelain gel is contraindicated in persons allergic to pineapple or the enzyme papain. [3] The most common side-effects are fever (19% of patients in studies) and local pain (3.6%). Wound infections occur no more frequently than under standard treatment. [3]

  3. Bromelain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromelain

    After an hour at 50 °C (122 °F), 83% of the enzyme remains, while at 40 °C (104 °F), practically 100% remains. [6] The proteolytic activity of concentrated bromelain solutions remains relatively stable for at least 1 week at room temperature, and multiple freeze-thaw cycles or exposure to the digestive enzyme trypsin have little effect on it.

  4. Cysteine protease - Wikipedia

    Cysteine proteases are commonly encountered in fruits including the papaya, pineapple, fig and kiwifruit. The proportion of protease tends to be higher when the fruit is unripe. The proportion of protease tends to be higher when the fruit is unripe.

    A group of enzymes located in the endoplasmic reticulum, known as cytochrome P-450, is the most important family of metabolizing enzymes in the liver. Cytochrome P-450 is not a single enzyme, but rather consists of a closely related family of 50 isoforms; six of them metabolize 90% of drugs.

[ 7 ] [ 8 ] In 2013, the revenue from Taiwan's pineapple cake bakeries totaled NT$40 billion (US$1.2 billion), and sales of pineapple cakes have also bolstered ...

  8. Pentose phosphate pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentose_phosphate_pathway

    Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is the rate-controlling enzyme of this pathway [citation needed]. It is allosterically stimulated by NADP + and strongly inhibited by NADPH. [7] The ratio of NADPH:NADP + is the primary mode of regulation for the enzyme and is normally about 100:1 in liver cytosol [citation needed]. This makes the cytosol a ...

  9. First pass effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_pass_effect

    First-pass metabolism may occur in the liver (for propranolol, lidocaine, clomethiazole, and nitroglycerin) or in the gut (for benzylpenicillin and insulin). [4] The four primary systems that affect the first pass effect of a drug are the enzymes of the gastrointestinal lumen, [5] gastrointestinal wall enzymes, [6] [7] [8] bacterial enzymes [5] and hepatic enzymes.
