Cancer immunotherapy by targeting IDO1/TDO and their downstream effectors
The tryptophan to kynurenine metabolic pathway is now firmly established as a key regulator of innate and adaptive immunity. A plethora of preclinical models suggests that this immune tolerance pathway - driven by the key and rate-limiting enzymes ...

Indoleamine-2,3-Dioxygenase 1 Deficiency Suppresses Seizures in Epilepsy
Background: Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme in the metabolism of tryptophan (TRP) to kynurenine (KYN).

The role of placental tryptophan catabolism
This review discusses the mechanisms and consequences of degradation of tryptophan (Trp) in the placenta, focussing mainly on the role of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1), one of three enzymes catalyzing the first step of the kynurenine pathway of ...
