Trypsin:Chymotrypsin

Role of Trypsin:Chymotrypsin in Tissue


Repair
• Trypsin:chymotrypsin is a widely used oral proteolytic enzyme
combination to hasten repair of traumatic, surgical, and orthopedic
injuries.
• It shows high bioavailability without losing its biological activities as
an anti-inflammatory, anti-edematous, fibrinolytic, antioxidant, and
anti-infective agent
• These properties help in resolving signs and symptoms of
inflammation due to tissue injury and facilitate the repair process.
• It also demonstrates analgesic effects and reduces the pain associated
with healing

Mechanism 1
• Oral combination of trypsin:chymotrypsin targets this early stage of
inflammation.
• Since α1-antitrypsin shows greater affinity for trypsin and
chymotrypsin compared to plasmin, oral supplementation of the
enzyme complex ensures that plasmin remains available for
fibrinolysis and the period of fibrinolytic shutdown is shortened.
• As a result, local microcirculation is restored, inflammatory edema is
cleared, and tissue repair is facilitated
Mechanism 2
• trypsin:chymotrypsin helps in maintaining high levels of α1-
antitrypsin for a long duration.
• Consequently, the activity of proteolytic enzymes and their
degradative effects are countered, leading to reduction in
inflammatory milieu, ROS and oxidative stress, and faster healing.
• Additionally, the enzyme preparation also increases enzymatic and
non-enzymatic antioxidant levels, which further augments its
antioxidant and anti-inflammatory efficacy

Other Mechanisms
• The anti-infective property of the enzyme complex may be explained
by enhanced phagocytic activity of natural killer cells and
macrophages due to trypsin1
• The combination has been shown to reduce the constant loss of
albumin and pre-albumin after surgical procedures2
• Consequently, it may prevent many of the life-threatening
postoperative complications, such as shock
