Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase: a mechanism of the antitumor activity of interferon gamma
TL;DR: The data show that the antiproliferative effect of IFN-gamma through induction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, with a consequent L-tryptophan deprivation, is an effective means of regulating cell growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
The actions of interferon and antiinflammatory agents on induction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in human peripheral blood monocytes
TL;DR: This is the first demonstration of the interferon-elicited induction of the dioxygenase in the cells of the immune system and of a novel mechanism for regulating tryptophan metabolism in the Cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cofactor activity of dihydroflavin mononucleotide and tetrahydrobiopterin for murine epididymal indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase
TL;DR: Using FMNH2 with a FMN reductase system, the enzyme exhibited higher efficiency and specificity for L-Trp, appearing to present the first evidence for a flavin-dependent mammalian dioxygenase.
Induction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase: A mechanism of the antitumor activity of interferon y (cell proliferation/L-tryptophan/amino acid metabolism/neoplastic cells/cel culture)
TL;DR: The data show that the antiproliferative effect of IFN-y through induction of indoleamine 2,3- dioxygenase, with a consequent L-tryptophan deprivation, is an effective means of regulating cell growth.
