Epidermal growth factor receptor mediates silibinin-induced cytotoxicity in a rat glioma cell line.

abstract：PURPOSE:Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a tryptophan catabolic enzyme, plays an important role in immune escape through suppressing T-cell function. Since Vav1 signaling pathway regulates T cell homeostasis, this study was designed to test the hypothesis that IDO induces T-cell immunosuppression through inhibiting V...
