Effects exerted by IPA include, but are not limited to, modulation of oxidative stress and inflammation as a result of increased expression of the cytochrome P450 enzymes encoded by the CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 genes and decreased expression of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene, promotion of intestinal mucosal barrier integrity, enhancement of mucosal anti-inflammatory IL-22 production, enhancement of mitochondrial fatty acid and amino acid oxidation in CD4 + T-cells resulting in reduced intestinal inflammation, and repression of nicotinamide N -methyltransferase (NNMT) activity resulting in enhanced nicotinamide, NAD + /NADH, and SIRT3 levels in the heart
