Biological activity | (Rac)-Indoximod (1-Methyl-DL-tryptophan) is indoleamine -2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitor. The combination of (Rac)-Indoximod and IFN-γ significantly reduced the activity of human myocardial fibroblasts expressing α-SMA and induced apoptosis (apoptosis) by up-regulating IRF-1,Fas and FasL genes. |
Cell Line: | Human cardiac myofibroblasts (hCMs) |
Concentration: | 0.5 mM |
Incubation Time: | 3 days |
Result: | Growth retardation by IFN-γ was partially reversed on day 2, but cell viability was further reduced on day 3. |
