Acute postoperative and post-traumatic conditions of swelling, especially of the nasal and paranasal sinuses.

In an open case observation study involving patients with blunt injuries to the musculoskeletal system, the efficacy and tolerability of high-dose Bromelain POS, a plant-derived enzyme preparation, were investigated. The investigating physician was an orthopedic surgeon who, in addition to the usual therapeutic measures, treated 59 of his patients with the bromelaine preparation. The duration of the application was determined by the nature and severity of the lesion, and varied between one and three weeks. The test criteria were swelling, pain at rest and during movement, and tenderness. These parameters were evaluated on the day of the injury and on five subsequent dates. Treatment with bromelaine resulted in a clear reduction in all four parameters tested. Both swelling and the symptoms of pain had improved appreciably at all evaluation time points as compared with baseline. The tolerability of the preparation was very good, and patient compliance was correspondingly high.

Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, diarrhea and cramping have been reported. There are occasional reports of metrorrhagia and menorrhagia.

As with papain and other proteases, bromelain may cause contact allergenic reactions in certain individuals.

Those on anticoagulants or antithrombotic agents should exercise caution in the use of bromelain. Bromelain may have blood thinning activity in some.

Evidence that bromelains (I) is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract of rats after oral administration is demonstrated in a bioavailability study in which 125I is given by oral route to rats and blood levels sampled at various times thereafter. A maximum level of 270 ng/ml I was found at one hr after administration.

It has been postulated that a minor enzymatic component present in bromelain is responsible for the release of a kinin, which stimulates the production of prostaglandin E1-like compounds; These PGE1-like compounds are then responsible for the physiological activities of bromelain.

Bromelain's digestant activity is based on its ability to hydrolyze proteins to oligopeptides and amino acids. Bromelain's proteolytic enzymes are cysteine proteases. Cysteine proteases cleave peptide bonds by nucleophilic attack via active-site cysteine residues.

The mechanism of the putative anti-inflammatory activity ... may be accounted for, in part, by activation of plasmin production from plasminogen and reduction of kinin via inhibition of the conversion of kininogen to kinin. Other possibilities, may include proteolytic degradation of circulating immune complexes and inhibition of signaling by extracellular regulated kinase (ERK-2) and p21 ras.

Bromelain has been shown to increase CD2-mediated T cell activation, to enhance antigen-independent binding to monocytes and to increase interferon (IFN)-gamma-dependant, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, Interleukin (IL)-1 beta, and interleukin (IL)-6 production in peripheral blood monocytes. These effects are thought to be due to bromelains proteolytic activity at cell surfaces, whereby it either removes surface molecules or reveals ones that already exist on cell membranes, thereby altering receptor-ligand interactions.
