Lysozym is an enzyme, which can cause complete digestion of the peptidoglycan walls of sensitive organisms. Decrease of MIC and increase of antibacterial affectivity of chloramphenicol to Staphlococcus aureus are created by co-ordination of lysozym with this antibiotic.

The contact lens wearers are exposed to the risk of permanent visual dysfunction due to various ocular diseases, especially corneal infections. And ocular disease of contact lens wearers are reported to be closely related to the biochemical alterations of tear film. To compare the lysozyme concentration of reflex tear in normal subjects and contact lens wearers, the tear was collected from 38 eyes of 38 normal subjects and 34 eyes of 34 contact lens wearers. The age of the subjects were between 20 to 39 years. The mean concentration of tear lysozyme were 3.55 +/-0.9 6 milligram/milliliter in normal subjects and 3.66 +/-1.02 milligram/milliliter in contact lens wearers. There was no statisti-cally significant difference between the two groups[p>0.05 ]. Though contact lens wearing does not decrease the concentration of tear lysozyme, it seems that this protein serves as a mediator of corneal infection by adhering to the surface of the contact lenses.

A poroma is usually described as a benign neoplasm arising from ductal epithelium of eccrine gland. However, in recent years there have been several reports on poromas featuring with combined sebaceous, follicular, and ductal differentiation, and thus establishment of this separate disease entity, "apocrine poroma" may well be justified considering the common embryologic origin of folliculosebaceous-apocrine unit. In our case, the tumor presented as a dark red nodule on the pubic area, being revealed as poroid neoplasm with folliculosebaceous components embedded in the lobules. Immunohistochemically, poroid cells stained with lysozyme. Taking the immunohistochemical staining results as well as the histopathologic findings of folliculosebaceous differentiation into consideration, we have concluded that this tumor is a case of an "apocrine poroma".

Human-derived lysozyme is a general term for a group of naturally occurring alkaline proteins in the human body that are capable of lysing bacterial cell walls. Its action is characterized by its ability to cleave the β-(1,4)-glycosidic bond between N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid in peptidoglycan. Human-derived lysozyme has a variety of properties such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and immune enhancing, and is therefore widely used in the domestic and international pharmaceutical markets. This review summarizes the structural features, expression sites, biological functions of human-derived lysozymes and its market applications.

Lysozyme (LYSO), as an alkalescent protein micromolecule in living organisms, exhibits important pharmacological actions such as antibiosis, anti-inflammatory, antivirus and enhancing immunity. LYSO can combine with many exogenous and endogenous substances and carry many drugs. This essay summarizes interaction between different kinds of active components of natural medicines and lysozymes, which is significant to comprehensively understand pharmacological mechanism of natural drugs and their transfer and metabolic process in organisms, optimize molecule structures of drugs and increase bioavailability and biological effects of natural drugs.
