1 In the present study, repeated injections of gamma-interferon (5000 IU, every 3 days for 39 days) to C57BL6 mice were associated with persistent activation of indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), the first enzyme of the kynurenine pathway, in lung and brain, sustained increases in brain QUIN concentration and increases in plasma L-kynurenine and QUIN levels. Kynurenine interferon gamma Mus musculus

3 Mice chronically treated with gamma-interferon offer an animal model to investigate the effects of sustained immune stimulation on kynurenine pathway metabolism. Kynurenine interferon gamma Mus musculus
