Immunohistochemistry of paraffin-embedded human tonsillitis tissue slide using FNab04127( IDO1 Antibody) at dilution of 1:100
Background
Catalyzes the first and rate limiting step of the catabolism of the essential amino acid tryptophan along the kynurenine pathway(PubMed:17671174). Involved in the peripheral immune tolerance, contributing to maintain homeostasis by preventing autoimmunity or immunopathology that would result from uncontrolled and overreacting immune responses(PubMed:25691885). Tryptophan shortage inhibits T lymphocytes division and accumulation of tryptophan catabolites induces T-cell apoptosis and differentiation of regulatory T-cells(PubMed:25691885). Acts as a suppressor of anti-tumor immunity(PubMed:23103127, PubMed:25157255, PubMed:14502282, PubMed:25691885). Limits the growth of intracellular pathogens by depriving tryptophan(PubMed:25691885). Protects the fetus from maternal immune rejection(PubMed:25691885).
