Induction of pulmonary indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase by intraperitoneal injection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide.
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase [indoleamine: oxygen 2,3-oxidoreductase (decyclizing)] activity in the supernatant fraction (30,000 X g, 30 min) of the mice lung homogenate increased approximately 30- to 50-fold after an intraperitoneal administration of bacterial lipopolysaccharide. In all other tissues tested, no significant increase in enzyme activity was observed. The effect appeared to be spec...
متن کاملInduction of Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase by Interferon- in Human Islets
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) catalyzes the initial, rate-limiting step of tryptophan (Trp) catabolism along the kynurenine (KYN) pathway, and its induction in cells of the immune system in response to cytokines has been implicated in the regulation of antigen presentation and responses to cell-mediated immune attack. Microarray and quantitative PCR analyses of isolated human islets incubat...
متن کاملNLRP3 Inflammasome Contributes to Lipopolysaccharide-induced Depressive-Like Behaviors via Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase Induction
Background Inflammation may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of depression, although the molecular target for the treatment of inflammation-mediated depressive symptoms remains to be elucidated. Recent studies have implicated the NLRP3 inflammasome in various psychiatric disorders, including depression. However, the underlying mechanism by which NLRP3 inflammasome activation mediates...
متن کاملSerum indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase activity predicts prognosis of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a major health problem, and there are few biomarkers for predicting prognosis. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a potent immunoregulatory molecule, catalyzes the rate-limiting step of tryptophan (Trp) degradation in the kynurenine (Kyn) pathway. An increase in IDO activity determined by the serum Trp/Kyn ratio has been shown to be associated with poor prognos...
متن کاملInduction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase by uropathogenic bacteria attenuates innate responses to epithelial infection.
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are the chief cause of urinary tract infections. Although neutrophilic inflammation is a hallmark of disease, previous data indicate that UPEC promotes local dampening of host innate immune responses. Here, we show that UPEC attenuates innate responses to epithelial infection by inducing expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a host enzyme with pr...
