Our research reveals IL-10RA as a pharmacological target in stromal cells for enhancing T cell-mediated PDAC eradication by downregulating IDO via blocked IL-10/IL-10RA signalling in MSCs. This advances IL-10RA interference in the tumour microenvironment (TME) to restore T cell cytotoxicity against cancers.

Mechanistically, lacidipine targets calcium channels (CaV1.2/1.3) to inhibit Pyk2-JAK1-calmodulin complex-mediated IDO1 transcription suppression, which suppresses the kynurenine pathway and maintains the total nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) pool by regulating NAD biosynthesis. These results reveal a new function of calcium channels in IDO1-mediated tryptophan metabolism in tumor immunity and warrant further development of lacidipine for the metabolic immunotherapy in breast cancer.

IDO1 expression in a total of 102 tissues with tumor and tumor microenvironment was detected by quantitative PCR (q-PCR). In gastric tumors, 3,25-fold decreased expression of IDO1 was detected according to the tumor microenvironment (p=0,05), IDO1 expression was found to be more than 2 times higher in signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) and poorly differentiated tumors without distant organ metastasis (p<0,05), In GC, tryptophan level was found to be 1,6 times lower than in control (AUC:0889; cut off≤21,57; p<0001), Low tryptophan level was found in advanced tumor stage compared to early stage and in the presence of perineural invasion compared to its absence (p<0,05) The level of kynurenine was found to be approximately 1,8 times lower in SRCC (p=0,04), Increased tryptophan accumulation in the gastric tumor and its microenvironment, when catabolized via IDO1, exhibits histological type, tumor differentiation, and metastasis-promoting effects more prominently in aggressive subtypes such as SRCC.

Mechanistically, the kynurenine released from IDO1-expressing CRC cells inhibited the IGFBP5/p53 signaling pathway, accounting for IDO1-mediated suppression of cell senescence and induction of chemoresistance. Collectively, these data revealed an unrecognized role of IDO1 in senescence escape and chemoresistance via releasing its catabolite kynurenine, implicating that therapeutically targeting IDO1 or IGFBP5/p53 signaling pathway holds great promise for CRC treatment.

Here, a multipathway coordination of immunogenic cell death (ICD), autophagy, and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) was achieved by a biomimetic nano-immunomodulator assembled from a chemotherapeutic agent (doxorubicin, DOX), small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules targeting IDO1 (siIDO1), and the zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8)...mRDZ exhibited strong capability to boost potent local and systemic antitumor immune responses with a feature of memory, which led to the effective suppression of the growth, lung metastasis, and recurrence of the tumor. Serving as an exemplary model for the straightforward and potent reshaping of the immune system against tumors, mRDZ offers valuable insights into the development of immunomodulatory nanomaterials for cancer therapy.

Serum HMGB1 and IDO have a synergistic effect, they inhibit immune function and promote tumor progression in ESCC patients, and also lead to poor prognosis.
