  • Title: [Increase in alkaline phosphatase activity in small intestine mucosa in high fat diets].
    Author: Raab W, Scharrer E.
    Journal: Z Ernahrungswiss; 1980 Dec; 19(4):276-9. PubMed ID: 7467486.
    Abstract:
    The activity of alkaline phosphatase in small intestine mucosa was increased by about 40% in rats adapted to a high fat diet in comparison to high-carbohydrate-adapted animals. As high fat-feeding leads to an increase in the intestine's capacity to absorb fat, this finding is consistent with the hypothesis that alkaline phosphatase in the small intestine epithelium plays a role in fat absorption.
