Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 and Programmed Cell Death-ligand 1 Co-expression Predicts Poor Pathologic Response and Recurrence in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma after Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the impact of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) expression, programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) status, and their combination on pathologic complete response (pCR) and recurrence in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1, PD-L1, and CD8+ TIL statuses were evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis on pre-CRT biopsies of 158 patients. Sixty-eight patients (43.0%) achieved pCR after neoadjuvant CRT and 48 patients (30.4%) developed recurrences after surgery. IDO1 and PD-L1 proteins were co-expressed in 28 patients (17.7%). Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 positive patients showed a significantly lower pCR rate than IDO1 negative patients (28.6% vs. 51.0%, P = 0.007). Similarly, PD-L1 high expression was significantly negatively correlated with pCR rate (27.3% vs. 51.5%, P = 0.004). On multivariate analysis, IDO1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for developing recurrences. Stratification analysis revealed that patients with co-expression of IDO1 and PD-L1 were significantly associated with a lower pCR rate and worse recurrence-free survival than those with one or none positive protein. In conclusion, IDO1 and PD-L1 co-expression could predict poor pathologic response and high risk of recurrence in ESCC after neoadjuvant CRT, indicating a subset of patients who may benefit from CRT combined with immunotherapy.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase and dendritic cell tolerogenicity.

Project description:This article summarizes the molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate the activity of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a potent immune-suppressive enzyme, in dendritic cells (DCs). Specific attention is given to differential up-regulation of IDO in distinct DC subsets, its function in immune homeostasis/autoimmunity, infection and cancer; and the associated immunological outcomes. The review will conclude with a discussion of the poorly defined mechanisms that mediate the long-term maintenance of IDO-expression in response to inflammatory stimuli and how selective modulation of IDO activity may be used in the treatment of disease.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase vaccination.

Project description:Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is an immunoregulatory enzyme. Remarkably, we discovered IDO-specific T cells that can influence adaptive immune reactions in patients with cancer. Further, a recent phase I clinical trial demonstrated long-lasting disease stabilization without toxicity in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were vaccinated with an IDO-derived HLA-A2-restricted epitope.

Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 1 Inhibitor-Loaded Nanosheets Enhance CAR-T Cell Function in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:In chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy, the role and mechanism of indoleamine 2, 3 dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) in enhancing antitumor immunity require further study. IDO1 is one of the most important immunosuppressive proteins in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, the IDO1 inhibitor, epacadostat, has failed in phase III clinical trials; its limited capacity to inhibit IDO1 expression at tumor sites was regarded as a key reason for clinical failure. In this study, we innovatively loaded the IDO1 inhibitor into hyaluronic acid-modified nanomaterial graphene oxide (HA-GO) and explored its potential efficacy in combination with CAR-T cell therapy. We found that inhibition of the antitumor effect of CAR-T cells in ESCC was dependent on the IDO1 metabolite kynurenine. Kynurenine could suppress CAR-T cell cytokine secretion and cytotoxic activity. Inhibiting IDO1 activity significantly enhanced the antitumor effect of CAR-T cells in vitro and in vivo. Our findings suggested that IDO1 inhibitor-loaded nanosheets could enhance the antitumor effect of CAR-T cells compared with free IDO1 inhibitor. Nanosheet-loading therefore provides a promising approach for improving CAR-T cell therapeutic efficacy in solid tumors.

Diaryl hydroxylamines as pan or dual inhibitors of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-2 and tryptophan dioxygenase.

Project description:Tryptophan (Trp) catabolizing enzymes play an important and complex role in the development of cancer. Significant evidence implicates them in a range of inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities. Whereas inhibitors of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) have been reported and analyzed in the clinic, fewer inhibitors have been described for tryptophan dioxygenase (TDO) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-2 (IDO2) which also have been implicated more recently in cancer, inflammation and immune control. Consequently the development of dual or pan inhibitors of these Trp catabolizing enzymes may represent a therapeutically important area of research. This is the first report to describe the development of dual and pan inhibitors of IDO1, TDO and IDO2.

Natural CD4+ T-cell responses against indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) contributes to immune tolerance in a variety of settings. In cancer IDO is expressed within the tumor itself as well as in antigen-presenting cells in tumor-draining lymph nodes, where it endorses the establishment of peripheral immune tolerance to tumor antigens. Recently, we described cytotoxic CD8(+) T-cell reactivity towards IDO-derived peptides. METHODS AND FINDINGS:In the present study, we show that CD4(+) helper T cells additionally spontaneously recognize IDO. Hence, we scrutinized the vicinity of the previously described HLA-A*0201-restricted IDO-epitope for CD4(+) T-cell epitopes. We demonstrated the presence of naturally occurring IDO-specific CD4(+) T cells in cancer patients and to a lesser extent in healthy donors by cytokine release ELISPOT. IDO-reactive CD4(+) T cells released IFN-?, TNF-?, as well as IL-17. We confirm HLA class II-restriction by the addition of HLA class II specific blocking antibodies. In addition, we detected a trend between class I- and class II-restricted IDO responses and detected an association between IDO-specific CD4(+) T cells and CD8(+) CMV-responses. Finally, we could detect IL-10 releasing IDO-reactive CD4(+) T cells. CONCLUSION:IDO is spontaneously recognized by HLA class II-restricted, CD4(+) T cells in cancer patients and in healthy individuals. IDO-specific T cells may participate in immune-regulatory networks where the activation of pro-inflammatory IDO-specific CD4(+) responses may well overcome or delay the immune suppressive actions of the IDO-protein, which are otherwise a consequence of the early expression of IDO in maturing antigen presenting cells. In contrast, IDO-specific regulatory T cells may enhance IDO-mediated immune suppression.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 regulates cell permissivity to astrovirus infection.

Project description:Astroviruses cause a spectrum of diseases spanning asymptomatic infections to severe diarrhea, but little is understood about their pathogenesis. We previously determined that small intestinal goblet cells were the main cell type infected by murine astrovirus-1. Here, we focused on the host immune response to infection and inadvertently discovered a role for indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (Ido1), a host tryptophan catabolizing enzyme, in the cellular tropism of murine and human astroviruses. We identified that Ido1 expression was highly enriched among infected goblet cells, and spatially corresponded to the zonation of infection. Because Ido1 can act as a negative regulator of inflammation, we hypothesized it could dampen host antiviral responses. Despite robust interferon signaling in goblet cells, as well as tuft cell and enterocyte bystanders, we observed delayed cytokine induction and suppressed levels of fecal lipocalin-2. Although we found Ido-/- animals were more resistant to infection, this was not associated with fewer goblet cells nor could it be rescued by knocking out interferon responses, suggesting that IDO1 instead regulates cell permissivity. We characterized IDO1-/- Caco-2 cells and observed significantly reduced human astrovirus-1 infection. Together this study highlights a role for Ido1 in astrovirus infection and epithelial cell maturation.

NADH oxidase activity of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.

Project description:The heme enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) was found to oxidize NADH under aerobic conditions in the absence of other enzymes or reactants. This reaction led to the formation of the dioxygen adduct of IDO and supported the oxidation of Trp to N-formylkynurenine. Formation of the dioxygen adduct and oxidation of Trp were accelerated by the addition of small amounts of hydrogen peroxide, and both processes were inhibited in the presence of either superoxide dismutase or catalase. Anaerobic reaction of IDO with NADH proceeded only in the presence of a mediator (e.g. methylene blue) and resulted in formation of the ferrous form of the enzyme. We propose that trace amounts of peroxide previously proposed to occur in NADH solutions as well as solid NADH activate IDO and lead to aerobic formation of superoxide and the reactive dioxygen adduct of the enzyme.

Indole peroxygenase activity of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.

Project description:The heme enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) was found to catalyze the oxidation of indole by H(2)O(2), with generation of 2- and 3-oxoindole as the major products. This reaction occurred in the absence of O(2) and reducing agents and was not inhibited by superoxide dismutase or hydroxyl radical scavengers, although it was strongly inhibited by L-Trp. The stoichiometry of the reaction indicated a one-to-one correspondence for the consumption of indole and H(2)O(2). The (18)O-labeling experiments indicated that the oxygen incorporated into the monooxygenated products was derived almost exclusively from H(2)(18)O(2), suggesting that electron transfer was coupled to the transfer of oxygen from a ferryl intermediate of IDO. These results demonstrate that IDO oxidizes indole by means of a previously unrecognized peroxygenase activity. We conclude that IDO inserts oxygen into indole in a reaction that is mechanistically analogous to the "peroxide shunt" pathway of cytochrome P450.

Substrate stereo-specificity in tryptophan dioxygenase and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.

Project description:The first and rate-limiting step of the kynurenine pathway, in which tryptophan (Trp) is converted to N-formylkynurenine is catalyzed by two heme-containing proteins, Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), and Tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO). In mammals, TDO is found exclusively in liver tissue, IDO is found ubiquitously in all tissues. IDO has become increasingly popular in pharmaceutical research as it was found to be involved in many physiological situations, including immune escape of cancer. More importantly, small-molecule inhibitors of IDO are currently utilized in cancer therapy. One of the main concerns for the design of human IDO (hIDO) inhibitors is that they should be selective enough to avoid inhibition of TDO. In this work, we have used a combination of classical molecular dynamics (MD) and hybrid quantum-classical (QM/MM) methodologies to establish the structural basis that determine the differences in (a) the interactions of TDO and IDO with small ligands (CO/O(2)) and (b) the substrate stereo-specificity in hIDO and TDO. Our results indicate that the differences in small ligand bound structures of IDO and TDO arise from slight differences in the structure of the bound substrate complex. The results also show that substrate stereo-specificity of TDO is achieved by the perfect fit of L-Trp, but not D-Trp, which exhibits weaker interactions with the protein matrix. For hIDO, the presence of multiple stable binding conformations for L/D-Trp reveal the existence of a large and dynamic active site. Taken together, our data allow determination of key interactions useful for the future design of more potent hIDO-selective inhibitors.

Expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase in early concepti.

Project description:Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO)-initiated tryptophan degradation in the placenta has been implicated in the prevention of the allogeneic fetus rejection [Munn, Zhou, Attwood, Bondarev, Conway, Marshall, Brown, and Mellor (1998) Science 281, 1191-1193]. To determine how IDO is associated with the development of the fetus and placenta, the time course of IDO expression (tryptophan-degrading activity, IDO protein and IDO mRNA) in the embryonic and extra-embryonic tissues as well as maternal tissues of mice was examined. A high tryptophan-degrading activity was detected in early concepti on days 6.5 and 7.5, whereas IDO protein and its mRNA were not expressed during early gestation, but appeared 2-3 days later, lasted for about 3 days and declined rapidly thereafter. The expression of IDO basically coincided with the formation of the placenta. On the contrary, the early tryptophan-degrading activity was due to gene expression of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO), as shown by Northern and Western analysis. These findings indicate that IDO is transiently expressed in the placenta but that the expression does not last until birth, and that the IDO expression is preceded by expression of another tryptophan-degrading enzyme, TDO, in the maternal and/or embryonic tissues in early concepti.
