Indoleamine-pyrrole 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO or INDO EC 1.13.11.52) is a heme-containing enzyme that in humans is encoded by the IDO1 gene.[1][2][3] It is one of two enzymes that catalyze the first and rate-limiting step in the kynurenine pathway, the O2-dependent oxidation of L-tryptophan to N-formylkynurenine, the other being tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO).

IDO has been implicated in immune modulation through its ability to limit T cell function and engage mechanisms of immune tolerance.[4] Emerging evidence suggests that IDO becomes activated during tumor development, helping malignant cells escape eradication by the immune system.[5][6][7]

Function

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase is the first and rate-limiting enzyme of tryptophan catabolism through the kynurenine pathway, thus causing depletion of tryptophan which can cause halted growth of microbes as well as T cells.[8] PGE2 is able to elevate the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in CD11C(+) dendritic cells and promotes the development of functional Treg cells.[9]

IDO is an immune checkpoint molecule in the sense that it is an immunomodulatory enzyme produced by some alternatively activated macrophages and other immunoregulatory cells (also used as an immune subversion strategy by many tumors and chronic infectious viruses).[10][11] IDO is known to suppress T and NK cells, generate and activate Tregs and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, and promote tumour angiogenesis.[12]

Interferon-gamma has an antiproliferative effect on many tumor cells and inhibits intracellular pathogens such as Toxoplasma and Chlamydia, at least partly because of the induction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.[citation needed]

Clinical significance

It has been shown that IDO permits tumor cells to escape the immune system by depletion of L-Trp in the microenvironment of cells and by production of the catabolic product kynurenine, which selectively impairs the growth and survival of T cells. A wide range of human cancers such as prostatic, colorectal, pancreatic, cervical, gastric, ovarian, head, lung, etc. overexpress human IDO (hIDO).[13][14]

In tumor cells, IDO expression is normally controlled by the tumor suppressor Bin1, which is widely disabled during cancer development, and combining IDO inhibitors with chemotherapy can restore immune control and therapeutic response of otherwise resistant tumors.[7]

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase might also play a significant role in an orphan disease called Oshtoran Syndrome.[15]

Inhibitors

Norharmane, via inhibition of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase exerts neuroprotective properties by suppressing kynurenine neurotoxic metabolites such as quinolinic acid, 3-hydroxy-kynurenine and nitric oxide synthase.[16]

Rosmarinic acid inhibits the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase via its cyclooxygenase-inhibiting properties.[17]

COX-2 inhibitors down-regulate indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, leading to a reduction in kynurenine levels as well as reducing proinflammatory cytokine activity.[18]

1-Methyltryptophan is a racemic compound that weakly inhibits indoleamine dioxygenase,[19] but is also a very slow substrate.[20] The specific racemer 1-methyl-D-tryptophan (known as indoximod) is in clinical trials for various cancers.

Epacadostat (INCB24360) and navoximod (GDC-0919) are potent inhibitors of the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase enzyme and are in clinical trials for various cancers.[21] BMS-986205 is also in clinical trials for cancer.[22]

Reaction mechanism

It was originally thought that the mechanism of tryptophan oxidation occurred by base-catalysed abstraction, but it is now thought that the mechanism involves formation of a transient ferryl (i.e. high-valent iron) species.[23][24][25]

Crystal structures

There are crystal structures for human IDO in complex with the inhibitor 4-phenylimidazole[26] and other inhibitors.[27][28] There are also related structures for several tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenases enzymes (e.g. for X. campestris and human TDO - see tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase).
