(Rac)-Indoximod is an indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitor that modulates immune responses. This compound synergizes with interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) to significantly decrease the activity of human cardiac myofibroblasts, characterized by α-SMA expression, and promotes apoptosis by upregulating the genes IRF-1, Fas, and FasL. Its applications include studying immune regulation and apoptosis in cardiac tissue and investigating therapeutic strategies for fibrotic diseases.
