Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-Indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase antibody [SP260] (AB270919)

Flow cytometry overlay histogram showing HeLa cells (green line) or HeLa cells treated with 50ng/mL IFN-gamma for 16h stained with ab270920 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS containing 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab270919) (1x 106 in 100μl at 0.04μg/ml (1/12500) for 30 min at 22°C.

Isotype control antibody (black line) was Rabbit IgG (monoclonal) Alexa Fluor 488 ® (ab199091) used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody (HeLa - black line; HeLa treated with 50ng/mL IFN-gamma for 16h - grey line). Unlabelled sample was also used as a control (this line is not shown for the purpose of simplicity).

Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 50 mW Blue laser (488nm) and 525/40 bandpass filter.

This antibody can also be used in cells fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) / permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min under the same conditions.

Supplementary information

Indoleamine 2 3-dioxygenase (IDO) also known as IDO1 is an enzyme involved in the catabolism of tryptophan to kynurenine. It weighs approximately 45 kDa and it is an important target in immunoregulatory processes. IDO is highly expressed in antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells and macrophages as well as in various tumor cells where it helps modulate immune responses. This enzyme can also be measured by using assays like IDO ELISA.
Biological function summary

IDO plays a role in immune response regulation by degrading tryptophan an essential amino acid needed for T-cell proliferation. The depletion of tryptophan and the accumulation of its metabolites such as kynurenine cause immunosuppressive effects within the tissue microenvironment. While IDO functions mostly as a standalone enzyme its activity influences the cellular surroundings by altering the balance of local immune reactions.

Pathways

IDO integrates into the tryptophan metabolism pathway and is important in the kynurenine pathway. Through this pathway it maintains immune homeostasis and cell defense mechanisms. Proteins like kynureninase and kynurenine 3-monooxygenase also participate in the same metabolic processes which further extend the effects of tryptophan metabolism on immune cell behavior.

IDO is linked with cancer and chronic inflammatory conditions. In cancer elevated IDO expression suppresses anti-tumor immunity aiding tumor cells to evade immune surveillance. It also plays a role in autoimmune disorders by regulating excessive immune activity. During cancer progression IDO often works in conjunction with immune checkpoint proteins like PD-L1 which further enhances its immunosuppressive capabilities within the tumor microenvironment.

Target data

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 : 14502282, PubMed : 23103127, PubMed : 25157255, PubMed : 25691885). Limits the growth of intracellular pathogens by depriving tryptophan (PubMed : 25691885). Protects the fetus from maternal immune rejection (PubMed : 25691885).
