摘要

Infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae, a human respiratory pathogen, has been implicated as a potential risk factor in atherosclerosis, possibly because the pathogen can exist in a persistent form similar to that described for Chlamydia trachomatis. The present study investigated whether gamma interferon (IFN-γ) can induce indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) activity in aortic smooth muscle cells, leading to a marked inhibition of C. pneumoniae growth. Our data indicate a stimulation of IDO mRNA expression and dose-dependent enzymatic activity following IFN-γ treatment. IDO-mediated increase in tryptophan catabolism resulted in a dose-dependent marked inhibition of C. pneumoniae replication.
