Function

Acute phase-regulated receptor involved in clearance and endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes by macrophages and may thereby protect tissues from free hemoglobin-mediated oxidative damage. May play a role in the uptake and recycling of iron, via endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin and subsequent breakdown of heme. Binds hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes in a calcium-dependent and pH-dependent manner. Exhibits a higher affinity for complexes of hemoglobin and multimeric haptoglobin of HP*1F phenotype than for complexes of hemoglobin and dimeric haptoglobin of HP*1S phenotype. Induces a cascade of intracellular signals that involves tyrosine kinase-dependent calcium mobilization, inositol triphosphate production and secretion of IL6 and CSF1. Isoform 3 exhibits the higher capacity for ligand endocytosis and the more pronounced surface expression when expressed in cells. After shedding, the soluble form (sCD163) may play an anti-inflammatory role, and may be a valuable diagnostic parameter for monitoring macrophage activation in inflammatory conditions.

Activity summary

CD163 known also as hemoglobin scavenger receptor is a membrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 130 kDa. It is predominantly expressed by monocytes and macrophages which are types of immune cells. Located on the cell surface CD163 functions as a receptor that aids in the clearance of hemoglobin-haptoglobin complexes playing a critical role in maintaining iron homeostasis and protecting tissues from oxidative damage. CD163 is not limited to human cells only; researchers often study its function using animal models such as chimeric rodents and chimeric rats.

Biological function summary

CD163 participates in anti-inflammatory processes and is linked to immune modulation. It plays a pivotal role in the resolution of inflammation and promotes the removal of damaged cells and tissues. Through its involvement in the endocytic pathway CD163 interacts with various ligands facilitating interactions with other proteins. In the context of research CD163 functionality can be analyzed using techniques like CD163 IHC CD163 ELISA and CD163 stain in both human and mouse models.

Pathways

CD163 is integral to the inflammation and immune response pathways. It participates in the heme-oxygenase pathway which is essential in the breakdown of heme into biliverdin free iron and carbon monoxide. This pathway involvement is tightly linked with heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) a cytoprotective enzyme that helps to mitigate inflammatory responses. The interaction with haptoglobin and related proteins provides further insight into its regulatory roles within the immune system.

Associated diseases and disorders

CD163 is associated with conditions like atherosclerosis and acute inflammation disorders. Its elevated levels indicate macrophage activation observed in chronic inflammations such as cardiovascular diseases. In atherosclerosis CD163 expression correlates with the uptake of oxidized LDL connecting it to progression of the disease. Additionally soluble CD163 levels serve as a biomarker in conditions like chronic liver disease where it is linked to macrophage activation and fibrosis. Within these disorders proteins like LDL and inflammatory cytokines are closely associated with CD163 function and regulation.

    Multiplex immunohistochemistry - Anti-CD163 antibody [EPR19518] (ab182422)

    Fluorescence multiplex immunohistochemical analysis of human liver (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded section). Panel A shows merged staining of anti-MASP2 stained on cytoplasm of hepatocytes (Anti-MASP2 antibody [EPR23588-44] ab277520; gray; Opal™690) at 1:100 ( 5.22 μg/ml) [Panel B] , anti-CD163 stained on Kupffer cells (Anti-CD163 antibody [EPR19518] - BSA and Azide free ab213612; green; Opal™520) at 1:8000 ( 0.13 μg/ml) [Panel C], and anti-eNOS tained on endothelial cells (Anti-eNOS antibody [EPR23750-3] ab252439; red; Opal™570) at 1:200 ( 3.005 μg/ml) [Panel D] on human liver. DAPI was used as a nuclear counter stain. Followed by Opal Polymer HRP Ms + Rb secondary. The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with an Opal™ 4-color kit. Image acquisition was performed with Leica SP8 confocal microscope. The section was incubated in three rounds of staining: in the order of Anti-MASP2 antibody [EPR23588-44] ab277520, Anti-CD163 antibody [EPR19518] - BSA and Azide free ab213612, and Anti-eNOS antibody [EPR23750-3] ab252439 for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution2) for 20 mins was used.

    This data was developed using Anti-CD163 antibody [EPR19518] - BSA and Azide free ab213612, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.

    Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded Human tonsil labelling CD163 with Anti-CD163 antibody [EPR19518] - BSA and Azide free ab213612 at a concentration of 0.5 µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with a OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with DISCOVERY cell conditioning solution (CC1) 100°C, pH8.5 for 32mins.

    Anti-CD163 antibody [EPR19518] - BSA and Azide free ab213612 anti CD163 antibody EPR19518 was incubated for 16mins at 37°C. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin II. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.
