IDO-mediated Inhibition of GVHD lethality occurs independently of the presence of donor Tregs. (A) Balb/c TCD BM with or without 3 × 106 Balb/c CD25-depleted CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were infused into lethally irradiated B6 or IDO−/− recipients. Survival plots are shown. ● indicates BM→B6; ■, CD25-depleted T cells→B6; ○, BM→IDO−/−; □, CD25-depleted T cells→IDO−/−. T cell groups of B6 vs IDO−/− (P < .005). Data are from one experiment; n = 8 per group. (B) Balb/c TCD BM with or without 2 × 106 Balb/c CD4+CD25− T cells were infused into lethally irradiated B6 or IDO−/− recipients. Survival plots of B6 vs IDO−/− are shown. ● indicates BM→B6; ■, CD4+CD25− T cells→B6; ○, BM→IDO−/−; □, CD4+CD25− T cells→IDO−/−. T cell groups (P < .02). Data are from one experiment; n = 8 mice/group. (C) Balb/c TCD BM with or without 1 × 106 Balb/c CD4+ T cells or CD4+CD25− T cells were infused into IDO−/− recipients. Survival plots of CD25-depleted versus nondepleted are shown. ○ indicates BM→IDO−/−; □, CD4+ T cells→IDO−/−; △, CD4+CD25− T cells→IDO−/−. T cell groups (P < .02). Data are from one experiment; n = 8 mice/group.
