Description

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Description This eyedio monoclonal antibody reacts with human indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO, INDO, IDO1), an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of tryptophan to kynurenines. IDO is expressed in a wide variety of tissues and cells, including macrophages, plasmacytoid dendritic cells, and several cell lines. IDO can be induced in many different cell types by IFN gamma or other inflammatory stimuli. Expression of IDO in antigen presenting cells and tumors is thought to mediate immune suppression through depletion of this essential amino acid and/or by the creation of tryptophan metabolites that cause apoptosis of T cells and induction of regulatory T cells. Applications Tested This eyedio antibody has been pre-diluted and tested by intracellular staining followed by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells using the Intracellular Fixation & Permeabilization Buffer Set (Product # 88-8824-00) and protocol. Please refer to 'Staining Intracellular Antigens for Flow Cytometry, Protocol A: Two step protocol for intracellular (cytoplasmic) proteins' located at Flow Protocols>. This may be used at 5 μL (0.25 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. Blocking Buffers When using two or mor...

IDO1 is an intracellular heme-containing enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of the indole ring of several important regulatory molecules like tryptophan, serotonin, and melatonin. By doing this, IDO1 initiates the production of biologically active metabolites, commonly referred to as kynurenines. IDO1 is widely expressed in a variety of human tissues as well as in macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). In inflammation, interferons (IFNs) act on specific receptors to trigger IDO1 induction. The production of IFN-gamma and induction of IDO1 represent important antimicrobial mechanisms. Degradation and depletion of tryptophan by IDO1 inhibits the growth of viruses, bacteria and parasites. Furthermore, IDO1 plays a complex and crucial role in immunoregulation during infection, pregnancy, autoimmunity, transplantation, and neoplasia.
