Expression and regulation of immune-modulatory enzyme Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) by human airway epithelial cells and its effect on T cell activation

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) catalyzes the degradation of tryptophan, which plays a critical role in immune suppression through regulating the production of a series of metabolites that are generally referred to as kynurenines. It has become increasingly clear that epithelial cells (ECs) play a...
