The present invention addresses the problem of indicating active-ingredient classes which can treat virus diseases caused by coronaviruses in a human or animal. Said treatment includes the acute treatment of an already existing virus disease and the prophylaxis of same. The present invention relates to a bromelain protease, bromelain, jacalin-like lectin, extract from the stem and/or the fruit of a pineapple plant, combination preparation, bromelain protease inhibitor, protein/protease mix, and glycated bromelain protein formed by exogenous non-enzymatic glycation, for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of virus infections caused by coronaviruses in a human or animal.

The present invention relates to a proteolytic extract obtained from bromelain for the treatment of connective tissue diseases. In particular, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a proteolytic extract obtained from bromelain for the treatment of diseases such as Dupuytren's disease and Peyronie's disease.

Methods for wound debridement and specifically methods of debridement of chronic wounds. These methods provide topically applying to a wound site a debriding formulation in the form of a hydrogel that includes a proteolytic enzyme mixture obtained from bromelain and a water-soluble gelling agent, with the debriding formulation being applied to the wound site up to ten times over a period of up to four weeks, thereby achieving debridement of chronic wounds.

This disclosure relates to methods of treating anal gland disease in subjects. In particular, the disclosure provides supplement compositions useful for treatment of anal gland disease. Such compositions comprise a probiotic, a fiber source, and an anti-inflammatory agent.

The Cloning and Expression of Comosain's Minigene and the Methods and Compositions for treating and/or preventing various types of cancer which comprise administered an effective amount of Glyco-polypeptides and Bioflavonoids such as Comosain, Ananase, Bromelainases, Trypsin, Pepsin, Quercetin, Rutin, Naringenin, Genistein, Hesperetin, etc and/or a mixture thereof.

A debridement enzyme for necrotic tissue is described that is not dependent upon proteolytic enzymatic activity but instead utilizes the amylase family of enzymes. The amylases (-, -, -amylase) are noted for the cleavage of the -glycosidic bonds of polysaccharides, yielding lower molecular weight carbohydrate/sugar fragments. It has now been found that -amylase is effective in the debridement of devitalized tissue.

Topical formulations of proteases, devices including the formulations are disclosed. Described herein are packages for storing and dispensing multi-part topical enzyme formulations and neutralizing agent, wherein the contents of the parts are mixed, and the enzyme is taken into solution containing a neutralizing agent (skin protectant) for treatment of skin abrasions and disorders. Particular multi-part topical formulation disclosed here relates to immediate (neutralizing agent) and extended relief (enzymes) from itching and inflammation associated with insect stings, insect bites, contact dermatitis such as poison ivy and poison oak, and eczema. The formulations and packaging using this principle and methods of use thereof are also provided. Additionally this invention contains active ingredients for wound cleaning and debridement.

Provided is a method for preparing a broccoli protein peptide. The method uses a broccoli protein as the raw material, and obtains a broccoli protein peptide powder through the steps of preprocessing, enzymatic hydrolysis, terminating enzymatic hydrolysis, separation, and drying and the like. Also provided is the use of the prepared broccoli protein peptide in resisting oxidation, reducing cholesterol and lowering blood lipids.

The present invention relates to debriding compositions in the form of an aqueous gel. Particularly, the present invention relates to a debriding composition comprising a proteolytic enzyme mixture obtained from bromelain present in a dry form, and an aqueous gel carrier, wherein, prior to use, the proteolytic enzyme mixture being admixed with the aqueous gel carrier to form a debriding composition useful for debridement and treatment of c wounds.

The present invention relates to synergistic compositions comprising bromelain, or a proteolytic fraction thereof, and cysteamine or a metabolite, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or prodrug thereof The invention also relates to methods and uses of such compositions for the treatment of diseases involving mucin.
