Imprinted and ancient gene: a potential mediator of cancer cell survival during tryptophan deprivation

BACKGROUND: Depletion of tryptophan and the accumulation of tryptophan metabolites mediated by the immunosuppressive enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), trigger immune cells to undergo apoptosis. However, cancer cells in the same microenvironment appear not to be affected. Mechanisms whereb...
