OBJECTIVES: Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of tryptophan (Trp) degradation in the kynurenine (Kyn) pathway. By depleting Trp, IDO plays a critical role in inducing immune suppression and tolerance. The aim of present study was to investigate serum IDO activity, determined by Kyn-to-Trp ratio (Kyn/Trp ratio), in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and to examine its clinical significance.
METHODS: This study subjects consisted of 129 consecutive patients with CAP and 64 healthy controls. The concentrations of Kyn and Trp were measured simultaneously by liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry.
RESULTS: The CAP patients had significantly higher Kyn concentrations and significant lower Trp concentrations than the controls (p < 0.0001 and p < 0.0001, respectively). Accordingly, IDO activity was significantly higher (2.4-fold) in the patients than in the controls (p < 0.0001). IDO activity correlated well with PSI (Pneumonia Severity Index) and CURB65 (p = 0.0005 and p < 0.0001, respectively). Moreover, the IDO activity and Kyn concentration were significantly higher in the nonsurvivors and were found to predict mortality in multivariate analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: IDO activity was increased in CAP, and this activity was associated with the severity and outcome of this disease. These results suggest that IDO activity can predict prognosis of CAP.
