Int J Tryptophan Res . 2022 Dec; 15:11786469221138456. PMID: 36467776
Kynurenine (Kyn), a metabolite of tryptophan (Trp), is a key regulator of mammal immune responses such as cancer immune tolerance. Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and tryptophan-2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) are main enzymes regulating the...

Int J Oncol . 2016 Apr; 48(6):2303-9. PMID: 27082119
Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is an immunosuppressive enzyme involved in tumor malignancy. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying its involvement remains largely uncharacterized. The present study aimed to investigate the hypothesis that NK4,...
