Trypsin, a kind of protease, EC 3.4.4.4, is a serine proteolytic enzyme extracted from the pancreas of cattle, sheep and pigs. In vertebrates, it functions as a digestive enzyme. After the pancreas is the precursor of trypsin, trypsinogen is synthesized and secreted as a component of pancreatic juice. It is restricted by intestinal kinase or trypsin and can be decomposed into activated trypsin, which is an endopeptidase. It can cut the carboxyl side of lysine and arginine residues in the polypeptide chain. It not only acts as a digestive enzyme, but also can restrict the decomposition of chymotrypsinogen, carboxypeptidase, phospholipase and other enzyme precursors, playing an active role. It is the most specific protease and becomes an indispensable tool in determining the amino acid arrangement of proteins.

Physical and chemical properties

edit
Trypsin is a lyophilized preparation that is extracted from the pancreas of cattle, pigs and sheep, purified and crystallized. Easily soluble in water, insoluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, ethanol, ether, etc. At pH1.8, it is almost not inactivated after boiling for a short time; When heated in alkaline solution, it will denature and precipitate, Ca 2+ The isoelectric point of trypsin is pH10.1.
Bovine trypsin is originally composed of 229 amino acids and contains 6 pairs of disulfide bonds. Its amino acid sequence and crystal structure have been clarified. Under the autocatalysis of intestinal kinase activity, the peptide bond between the N-terminal lysine and isoleucine residue of the zymogen is hydrolyzed, releasing the valium day day day day day lysine 6 peptide, and generating active trypsin. There are 223 amino acid residues of bovine trypsin, with a molecular weight of 23800. The serine residue in the active site is an indispensable serine protease.
Trypsin
The chemical structure of porcine trypsin is very similar to that of bovine trypsin. In the sequence of amino acid residues, only 41 amino acid residues are different, but their molecular configurations are very different. The sedimentation coefficient S20W is 2.77S, pI=10.8, the thermal stability is more stable than that of bovine trypsin, Ca 2+ The protective effect on enzyme is not as obvious as that of cattle and sheep, without chelating Ca 2+ The center of the. There are 6 pairs of disulfide bonds and 1~2 bonds are broken, which will not destroy the complete structure of the enzyme molecule and protect the activity of the enzyme. The enzyme activity was equivalent to 72% in cattle and 61% in sheep.
Sheep trypsin is similar to that of cattle and pigs, but its activity is slightly higher than that of cattle and pigs.
Trypsin specifically acts on peptide bond composed of basic amino acid arginine and lysine carboxyl. The enzyme itself is easy to self dissolve β -Trypsin is converted into α -Trypsin is further degraded into tryptase and even fragments, and its activity is gradually reduced and lost.
Activation process of trypsinogen
In addition to vertebrates, it also exists in a wide range of organisms such as silkworms, sea pans, crayfish, actinomycetes, etc. In addition, thrombin, plasmin, vasodilator and other proteases related to blood coagulation and inflammation of higher animals are closely related to trypsin in terms of chemical structure and specificity. It can be considered that these enzymes are derived from the evolution of common ancestor enzymes. Chymotrypsin and elastase are also closely related in structure and catalytic mechanism, but their specificity is completely different.

Brief Introduction to Drugs

Announce
edit

pharmacological action

Trypsin is an endopeptidase that selectively hydrolyzes arginine and lysine peptide chains, and can hydrolyze natural protein, denatured protein, fibrin and mucin into polypeptides or amino acids. Because the serum contains non-specific aprotinin, trypsin will not digest normal tissues, but can decompose mucus secretions such as mucus and purulent sputum, which can promote the penetration of antibiotics and chemotherapy drugs into the focus.

indication

1. It is used for local edema, hematoma and abscess caused by empyema, hemothorax, surgical inflammation, ulcer, traumatic injury, Lou tube, etc.
2. It is used to dissolve mucus and purulent sputum in respiratory diseases.
3. It is used to treat venomous snake bites. More than 800 patients with various types of venomous snake bites, such as Zhuyeqing, Bungarus multicinctus, Cobra, Agkistrodon halys, have been cured.

contraindication

1. Patients with hepatorenal hemorrhage, bleeding tendency and tuberculous abscess should not be used.
2. It should not be used in acute inflammation and bleeding cavity.

Usage and dosage

1. 2.5~5mg each time, dissolve with 5~10mL distilled water.
2. General application: 5000 units once, intramuscular injection once a day, the dosage depends on the circumstances. To prevent pain, appropriate amount of procaine can be added. The local application depends on the situation. It can be prepared into solution preparation (PH7.4 ~ 8.2, the most active when slightly alkaline), spray, powder, ointment, etc., which can be used for intracavitary injection, injection at the affected part, spray, wet compress, and application.
3. Treatment of snake venom: take 1~3 tubes of 2000 units of crystalline trypsin for injection, add 0.25%~0.5% procaine hydrochloride (or water for injection) 4~20mL for dilution, take the tooth scar as the center, and make infiltration injection around the wound, or make circular sealing above the swelling part for 1~2 times. It can be reused if necessary. If the swelling of the injured limb is obvious, the wound can be opened for detoxification and decompression 30 minutes after the injection of this product (except for severe bleeding), or the swelling part can be punctured for detoxification. If the wound is necrotic and festering, apply 0.1% solution to the affected part

matters needing attention

1. No static injection is allowed. Scratch test shall be conducted before use, and it shall be noted that allergic reaction may occur.
2. After absorbing the injection, the needle should be changed to avoid pain during injection.
3. For external use, the injection preparation can be dissolved in buffer solution, but it must be used within 3 hours.

Adverse reactions

1. Local pain and induration after injection.
2. This product can cause histamine release and systemic reaction, including chills, fever, headache, dizziness, chest pain, abdominal pain, rash, angioneurotic edema, dyspnea, elevated intraocular pressure, leukopenia, etc. If the symptoms are mild, the continuous treatment will not be affected. Antihistamines and symptomatic drugs can be given to control the symptoms. If the symptoms are serious, the drug should be stopped immediately.
3. This product can occasionally cause anaphylactic shock.
