Angiopoietin-1 tended to increase its production in the GBS group (Figure 7A), whereas Angiopoietin-2, FGF-b, sPECAM-1, and TNF- had unchanged levels despite of the addition of GBS and/or uvaol (Figures 7BE)

Furthermore, significant knowledge gaps remain regarding the standardization of bromelain preparations, variability in enzyme composition, and doseresponse relationships, which currently limit its clinical applicability
Increased activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is linked to VEGF-induced increases in BBB permeability in rats [197]
Substances labeled "research use only" or "not for human consumption" are prohibited under this classification, regardless of their marketed claims
