What is the effect of temperature on salivary amalyse activity?
Every enzyme has a temperature range of optimum activity. Outside that temperature range the enzyme is rendered inactive and is said to be totally inhibited. This occurs because as the temperature changes this supplies enough energy to break some of the intramolecular attractions between polar groups (Hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole attractions) as well as the Hydrophobic forces between non-polar groups within the protein structure. When these forces are disturbed and changed, this causes a change in the secondary and tertiary levels of protein structure, and the active site is altered in its conformation beyond its ability to accomodate the substrate molecules it was intended to catalyze. Most enzymes (and there are hundreds within the human organism) within the human cells will shut down at a body temperature below a certain value which varies according to each individual. This can happen if body temperature gets too low (hypothermia) or too high (hyperthermia).

With chronic pancreatitis does amylase and lipase lab values become normal?
"Amylase serum levels will rise with chronic pancreatitis." I am currently researching the effects on serum amylase and lipase in relation pancreatitis as part of a college course I am taking. What I have learned is that the amylase level will be elevated in ACUTE pancreatitis, but will be below the "normal" range in CHRONIC pancreatitis. In addition the lipase levels "parallel" the amylase levels, but lipase is a bit slower to rise and fall. They both elevate with acute pancreatitis, and both fall below "normal" range with chronic pancreatitis. One of my best references in researching these lab values inrelation to pancreatitis is the National Institute of Health (NIH) website.
