Cytotoxicity and Induction of Inflammation by Pepsin in Acid in Bronchial Epithelial Cells

International Journal of Inflammation, 2011
Introduction. Gastroesophageal reflux has been associated with chronic inflammatory diseases and may be a cause of airway remodelling. Aspiration of gastric fluids may cause damage to airway epithelial cells, not only because acidity is toxic to ...

Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) amylase and pepsin levels as potential biomarkers of aspiration pneumonia

Pulmonology, 2023
Background and objective There are currently no established markers for aspiration pneumonia. We hypothesized that bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) amylase and pepsin might be candidate biomarkers for aspiration pneumonia.Methods This cross-sectional study ...

Pepsin properties, structure, and its accurate measurement: a narrative review

, 2021
Pepsin is an aspartate protease that is generated from its proenzyme, pepsinogen by autocatalysis initiated by a fall in pH below 5. Human gastric juice contains eight isoenzymes of pepsin.
