Group 1: starch or sucrose

Group 2: sucrose

Group 3: starch, sucrose or guar gum

Group 4: starch, sucrose or cellulose for 30 days

Group 3: ↓ IAP activity

Group 4: ↑ IAP activity

Montagne et al. (1999) [84] Experimental/20 Holstein calves Liquid diet based on skimmed milk powder and soybean protein concentrate for 60 days ↓ IAP and AP total activities
Boudry et al. (2002) [85] Experimental/45 piglets

Group 1: Diet based on wheat

Group 2: Diet based on barley

Group 3: Diet based on milk for 35 days

↑ activities of IAP and sucrase in both groups

Group 1: ↑ dipeptidyl-peptidase IV activity

Group 1 and 2: ↑ sodium-dependent glucose absorption, ↓ diarrhea

Sogabe et al. (2004) [88] Experimental/16 Sprague-Dawley strain female rats Glucose diet and lactose diet for 21 days

↑ level of IAP activity in the jejunum from the lactose group rats

↑ IAP mRNA expression

Montoya et al. (2006) [87] Experimental/10 female Wistar rats Protein-free diet, as compared to casein, in slightly energy-restricted rats fed for 10 days

Protein-free diet—↓villus width, height to crypt depth ratio in the duodenum and ileum

↓ IAP

Sogabe et al. (2007) [94] Experimental/26 Sprague-Dawley rats

Group 1: vitamin K1

Group 2: vitamin K2

Both orally administered for 90 days

↑ IAP in both group

Group 2: corn oil

Group 3: cod liver oil

Group 4: Saline

Analyses 5 h after oral administration

Groups 1, 2, and 3: ↑ serum AP activity, ↑ Luminal IAP activity

↑ IAP in the microvillus brush-border membrane of enterocytes

↑ secretion into the gastrointestinal tract

Haraikawa et al. (2011) [95] Experimental/21 male ICR strain mice

Group 1: vitamin K1

Group 2: vitamin K2

Analysis 4 h after oral administration

Group 1: ↑ IAP activity in the jejunum and IAP mRNA expression

Group 2: ↑ IAP mRNA expression

Brun et al. (2012) [71] Experimental/18 male Sprague-Dawley inbred rats

Group 1: 0.2 g % Ca diet

Group 2: 1 g % Ca diet

Group 3: 2 g % Ca diet

Orally supplemented for 3 days

All groups: ↑ IAP activity in the brush border
Riggle et al. (2013) [60] Experimental/30 newborn Sprague-Dawley rats—necrotizing enterocolitis 4 or 40 glycine units of bovine IAP intraperitoneally for 3 days ↓TNF-α; IL-6; IL-1β
Ghosh et al. (2014b) [98] Experimental/ LDLR−/−mice Western diet for 16 weeks plus 100 mg/kg of curcumin by oral gavage

Western diet: ↑ LPS levels, glucose intolerance and/or heart disease; ↓ intestinal barrier, ↓ IAP activity, expression of tight junction proteins, ZO-1 and Claudin-1

Curcumin: ↓ LPS levels, ↓ lesions in the aortic arch and entire aorta; ↑ intestinal barrier, IAP activity, glucose tolerance, expression of tight junction proteins, ZO-1 and Claudin-1

Okazaki et al. (2017) [89] Experimental/male Sprague-Dawley rats fed with diet containing 30% lard 4% high or low viscous glucomannan for 2 weeks

↑ colonic AP activity, colonic and gene expression of IAP, fecal levels of IgA, mucins and cecal organic acids

↔ colonic expression of Akp3
