Indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase Up-regulates Hypoxia-inducible Factor-1α Expression by Degrading L-tryptophan but Not Its Activity in Human Alloreactive T-cells
Indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses T-cell function at least in part by altering cell metabolism. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) increases upon T-cell activation and alters cell metabolism favoring their differentiation to effector cells. The effect of IDO on HIF-1α expression and act...
