Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a heme enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of L-tryptophan. Functionally, IDO1 has played a pivotal role in cancer immune escape via catalyzing the initial step of the kynurenine pathway, and overexpression of IDO1 is also associated with poor prognosis in various cancers. Currently, several small-molecule candidates and peptide vaccines are currently being assessed in clinical trials. Furthermore, the "proteolysis targeting chimera" (PROTAC) technology has also been successfully used in the development of IDO1 degraders, providing novel therapeutics for cancers. Herein, we review the biological functions of IDO1, structural biology and also extensively summarize medicinal chemistry strategies for the development of IDO1 inhibitors in clinical trials. The emerging PROTAC-based IDO1 degraders are also highlighted. This review may provide a comprehensive and updated overview on IDO1 inhibitors and their therapeutic potentials.
吲哚胺 2,3-双加氧酶 1(IDO1)是一种血红素酶,可催化 L-色氨酸的氧化。从功能上讲,IDO1 通过催化犬尿氨酸途径的起始步骤,在癌症免疫逃逸中发挥了关键作用,IDO1 的过表达也与各种癌症的预后不良有关。目前,几种小分子候选药物和肽疫苗正在临床试验中进行评估。此外,“蛋白水解靶向嵌合体”(PROTAC)技术也已成功用于 IDO1 降解剂的开发,为癌症提供了新的治疗方法。本文综述了 IDO1 的生物学功能、结构生物学,并广泛总结了临床试验中 IDO1 抑制剂的药物化学策略。还强调了新兴的基于 PROTAC 的 IDO1 降解剂。这篇综述可能提供了关于 IDO1 抑制剂及其治疗潜力的全面和最新概述。
