IDO polyclonal, anti-human

Quantity: 100 µl

Description:
IDO catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the main pathway of human tryptophan catabolism, the kynurenine pathway. Proinflammatory mediators, such as endotoxin and IFN-gamma induce the expression of IDO in several tissues. IDO-dependent suppression of T-cell responses might function as natural immunoregulatory mechanism. Physiological IDO activity has been implicated in T-cell tolerance to tumors, dysfunctional selftolerance in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, and as a protective negative regulator in autoimmune disorders.

Synonyms:
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, INDO
