Immune cell proliferation is suppressed by the interferon‐γ‐induced indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase expression of fibroblasts populated in collagen gel (FPCG)

Abstract: Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a tryptophan-catabolizing enzyme, is an intracellular enzyme possessing various immunosuppressive properties. Here, we report the possible use of this enzyme to suppress proliferation of immune cells cocultured with IDO-expressing fibroblasts of an allogenic skin substitute. Fetal skin fibroblasts embedded within bovine collagen were treated with cytokine interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) to induce expression of IDO mRNA and protein. Expression of IDO mRNA was evaluated by Norther… Show more

“…It was previously reported that IDO induces inhibition of immune cell (e.g., NK cells and T cells) proliferation (25,26). In our data, intrahepatic MNCs from IDO-KO mice treated with a-GalCer were apoptosis resistant with those from WT mice.…”

“…would interact with other immune cells, first in the regional lymph nodes and then in the spleen, within the first week after administration. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is an intracellular tryptophan-catabolizing enzyme that possesses various immunosup- pressive properties [19]. Antigen-presenting cells have been shown to suppress T cell proliferation via a rapid and selective IDO-mediated degradation of tryptophan [20].…”
