Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase (IDO) and Cancerous Cells
L-Tryptophan (Trp) and its metabolites have critical roles in different physiological and immunological processes. Trp is a constructive building... -
The combination of IDO and AHR blockers reduces the migration and clonogenicity of breast cancer cells
The indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) enzyme causes immunosuppressive consequences in the tumor microenvironment (TME). In addition, the role of aryl...

IDO and TGF-β Inhibitors for the Treatment of Lung Cancer
Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of tryptophan to N-formylkynurenine, and it is the rate-limiting step in... -
IDO blockade negatively regulates the CTLA-4 signaling in breast cancer cells
Cancer is classified into metabolic and/or genetic disorders; notably, the tryptophan catabolism pathway is vital in different cancer types. Here, we...
