Abstract
There are numerous factors involved in the tumor evasion from immune surveillance. Recently, considerable attention has been given to indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs). The interaction between the two may play a crucial role in tumor immune escape. This article reviews the correlation between IDO and Tregs in immune escape of tumors.
