Bromelain acts through multiple pathways, including anti-inflammatory effects by modulating prostaglandins and reducing bradykinin levels, fibrinolytic activity which breaks down fibrin, and immunomodulatory effects by influencing immune cells and cytokines. Trypsin acts by hydrolyzing (breaking) peptide bonds in proteins, specifically at the carboxyl side of the amino acids lysine and arginine, using a catalytic triad of serine, histidine, and aspartate to form an acyl-enzyme intermediate.
