mIDO1 activity in murine lung tissue during Toxoplasma gondii infection. Serum and lung samples were collected from naïve or T. gondii ME49-infected wild-type (WT) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1-deficient (IDO−/−) mice. Free tryptophan and kynurenine was measured via high-performance liquid chromatography in serum (A) and lung tissue homogenate samples (B). Comparison of the T. gondii load (determined by B1-gene detection) in lungs of naïve or infected WT and IDO−/− mice (C). Data are represented as scattered dot plots and means (±standard error of the mean for RT-PCR data). For the RT-PCR data, each dot represents the mean of duplicate measurements of a single mouse lung tissue sample. The Student's t-test (unpaired, two-tailed) was used to determine statistical differences marked with asterisks (n.s., not significant; *p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.001, and ***p ≤ 0.0001).
