Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens interferon-gamma induces the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, an 100fold and 200fold increase in IDO activity is detected with IFN-gamma concentrations of 5 and 10 units/ml, respectively up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the induction of IDO by interferon-gamma in HLE-B3 cells causes increases in intracellular reactive oxygen species, cytosolic cytochrome c and caspase-3 activity, along with a decrease in protein-free thiol content, are accompanied by apoptosis. IDO-mediated kynurenine formation plays a role in cataract formation related to chronic inflammation Homo sapiens
