Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is an IFN-y inducible enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of the essential amino acid L-tryptophan to N-formylkynurenine.
The gene encoding human IDO maps to chromosome 8p12-p11.
IDO, also known as INDO, is an important modulator of immunological responses and protects allogeneic concepti from alloreactive maternal lymphocytes.
IDO mediates an interesting inhibitory effect of HeLa cells co-cultured with human PBLs.
The ILN-2-induced proliferation response of PBLs is diminished in the presence of HeLa cells while an IDO inhbitor negates this effect.
Flow cytometric analysis indicates both mature and immature CD123-positive dentritic cells suppress T cell activity using IDO.
IDO-transfected cells co-cultured with T cells reduces T cell proliferation.
