Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is a tryptophan catabolizing enzyme that has a number of immunoregulatory effects. It is expressed at high levels in the gastrointestinal tract, particularly in the small intestine, and has been implicated in the control of intestinal inflammation. However, its prec
## Abstract Studies of adoptive tumor neutralization (the Winn test) in BALB/c mice rendered immune to the Simian Virus 40‐induced tumor mKSA indicate that: a) the reaction is extremely specific; b) there is a very close correlation between immunity detected by the Winn test and the ability of the
