A slight decrease in serum alkaline phosphatase was seen in all KOs, and small changes in liver gene expression of genes unrelated to tryptophan metabolism were observed. Regarding other parameters, no genotype-specific changes were observed. In summary, this work shows metabolomic pathway changes for metabolites downstream of tryptophan in these KO mice, and suggests that inhibition of the IDO1 and TDO2 enzymes would be well tolerated whether inhibited individually or in combination since no safety liabilities were uncovered.Sphingolipids-enriched rafts domains are proposed to occur in plasma membranes and to mediate important cellular functions. Notwithstanding, the asymmetric transbilayer distribution of phospholipids that exists in the membrane confers the two leaflets different potentials to form lateral domains as next to no sphingolipids are present in the inner leaflet. How the physical properties of one leaflet can influence the properties of the other and its importance on signal transduction across the membrane are questions still unresolved. In this work, we combined AFM imaging and Force spectroscopy measurements to assess domain formation and to study the nanomechanical properties of asymmetric supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) mimicking membrane rafts. Asymmetric SLBs were formed by incorporating N-palmitoyl-sphingomyelin (160SM) into the outer leaflet of preformed 1,2-Dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC)/Cholesterol SLBs through methyl-β-cyclodextrin-mediated lipid exchange. Lipid domains were detected after incorporation of 160SM though their phase state varied from gel to liquid ordered (Lo) phase if the procedure was performed at 24 or 37 °C, respectively. When comparing symmetric and asymmetric Lo domains, differences in size and morphology were observed, with asymmetric domains being smaller and more interconn
