Effects of pepsin and pepstatin on reflux tonsil hypertrophy in vitro. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 There is evidence that pepsin can aggravate tonsil hypertrophy. Pepstatin is a potent inhibitor of pepsin activity and could protect patients against reflux tonsil hypertrophy by inhibiting pepsin.

International journal of health sciences, 2022 Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) can contribute to chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Pepsin is believed to be one of the causes of CRS. Pepsin can be a promising biomarker because it is only produced by gastric parietal cells, so it can explain the correlation of CRS with LPR.

Extra-Esophageal Pepsin from Stomach Refluxate Promoted Tonsil Hypertrophy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Gastroesophageal reflux is associated with numerous pathologic conditions of the upper aerodigestive tract. Gastric pepsin within reflux contributes to immunologic reactions in the tonsil.

Kinetics of pepsin-induced hydrolysis and the coagulation of milk proteins
Journal of Dairy Science, 2022 : Hydrolysis-induced coagulation of casein micelles by pepsin occurs during the digestion of milk. In this study, the effect of pH (6.7–5.3) and pepsin concentration (0.110–2.75 U/mL) on the hydrolysis of κ-casein and the coagulation of the casein ...
