Overexpression of Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 1 Promotes Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition by Activation of the IL-6/STAT3/PD-L1 Pathway in Bladder Cancer

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a key enzyme in tryptophan metabolism and plays an important role in tumor cell immunosuppression and angiogenesis. The molecular mechanisms of IDO1 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) have not been elucidated or studied in bladder cancer. Therefore, t...
