Involvement of Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase in Impairing Tumor-Infiltrating CD8+ T-Cell Functions in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-(IDO-) mediated microenvironment plays an important role in tumor immune escape. However, the inhibitory effects of IDO on the CD8+ tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (CD8+ TILs) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) have not been clarified yet. Here, we found tha...
