ABSTRACT
Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) can induce tolerance or immunity. We describe a subset of human APCs that express indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and inhibit T cell proliferation in vitro. IDO-positive constituted discrete identified by coexpression the cell-surface markers CD123 CCR6. In dendritic (DC) lineage, IDO-mediated suppressor activity was present fully mature as well immature CD123+ DCs. IDO+ DCs could also be readily detected vivo, which suggests these may represent regulatory humans.
