CD163 is a member of the scavenger receptor family that has a role in inflammation.{60195,60196} It is composed of an N-terminal ectodomain, which contains nine scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) class B domains that mediate protein-protein interactions, a transmembrane segment, and a short cytoplasmic tail.{60195,60194} Alternative splicing of the CD163 pre-mRNA produces several isoforms, including three variants that differ in length of the cytoplasmic tail.{60194} CD163 is expressed on the surface of monocytes and macrophages and used as a marker of M2 alternatively activated macrophages.{60195} CD163 protein levels are increased by hemoglobin, IL-6, IL-10, or glucocorticoids and decreased by LPS, IL-4, TNF-?, or IFN-?.{60195,60197} It binds to and internalizes haptoglobin-hemoglobin (Hp-Hb) complexes, leading to degradation of the Hp-Hb complex and production of anti-inflammatory heme metabolites.{60195} A soluble form of CD163 (sCD163), resulting from proteolytic cleavage of membrane-bound CD163, has been found in plasma and other tissue fluids.{60194} CD163+ macrophages in inflamed tissues or plasma sCD163 levels are increased in numerous acute or chronic inflammatory diseases, including sepsis, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis.{60195,60196} Cayman’s CD163 (N-Term) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody can be used for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot (WB) applications.
