Here we provide evidence that: 1) tryptophan conversion to kynurenines is activated in DCs by cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4, both in a soluble form or anchored to the regulatory T cell (Treg) membrane; 2) an increased IDO-dependent tolerogenesis correlates with the inhibition of DAP12 functions, an adapter molecule associated with activating receptors; 3) a tolerogenic phenotype can be acquired by DCs lacking functional IDO through the paracrine production of kynurenines by IDO-competent DCs; 4) the suppressive effect of Treg generated in a microenvironment with low tryptophan concentration and a mixture of kynurenines can protect mice in an experimental model of fulminant diabetes.
