additional information | IDO1 expression is found in most tissues and is regulated by immunological signals, including interferon-gamma, lipopolysaccharide and tumor necrosis factor. Expression of IDO2 protein in the liver and kidney in these IDO1-/- mice is unaffected, although the IDO2 transcript is downregulated. It is possible that the deletion of the IDO1 gene affects the expression of the IDO2 protein in other cell types, and 1DMT's effects might be mediated through either or both IDO isoforms | Mus musculus | - |

Organism | Comment | Expression |
---|---|---|
Homo sapiens | IDO1 expression is upregulated by cytokines such as IFN-gamma, e.g. in HELA cells, IDO2 mRNA expression is upregulated in response to IFN-gamma in some cancer cell lines as well and human mesenchymal stem cells | up |
Mus musculus | IDO1 expression is upregulated by cytokines such as IFN-gamma, IDO2 is upregulated in mouse dendritic cell lines as well as mouse mesenchymal stem cells. IDO2 mRNA is also upregulated in the brain of mice infected with Toxoplasma gondii, an infection in which IFN-gamma-driven responses play an important role in controlling parasite growth | up |
General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
malfunction | IDO1 pharmacological inhibition causes the rejection of mouse allogeneic concepti, mediated by T cells, and its expression in tumors is associated with their immune evasion. Deletion of IDO1 genomic sequences has the potential to also impact on IDO2 expression due to the chromosomal proximity of the genes, transcription of the IDO2 gene is reduced in the liver of IDO1-/- mice, although protein levels appear to be maintained | Mus musculus |
metabolism | three enzymes are now known to catalyze the first and rate-limiting step in the catabolism of tryptophan along the kynurenine pathway: tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase subsequently and a third enzyme, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 2. The kynurenine pathway is a major route for NAD+ synthesis. The pathway is implicated in many disorders and/or their complications, including cerebral malaria, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases | Mus musculus |

physiological function | in mammals, IDO1 acts as a defence molecule in combating bacterial and viral infections, as its expression is up-regulated by cytokines such as IFN-gamma, leading to local depletion of L-Trp and causing inhibition of pathogen growth | Homo sapiens |
