基因名称(Gene Name)
CD163 M130
蛋白名称
Scavenger receptor cysteine-rich type 1 protein M130 (Hemoglobin scavenger receptor) (CD antigen CD163) [Cleaved into: Soluble CD163 (sCD163)]
免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from human CD163
特异性
This antibody detects endogenous levels of human CD163. Heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) TRIS-EDTA of pH8.0 was highly recommended as antigen repair method in paraffin section
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
来源
Mouse, Monoclonal/IgG1, Kappa
稀释比例
IHC-p 1:100-500. IF 1:50-200
纯化工艺
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen.
背景
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) superfamily, and is exclusively expressed in monocytes and macrophages. It functions as an acute phase-regulated receptor involved in the clearance and endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes by macrophages, and may thereby protect tissues from free hemoglobin-mediated oxidative damage. This protein may also function as an innate immune sensor for bacteria and inducer of local inflammation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011],
功能
caution:It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-6 is the initiator.,disease:The soluble form (sCD163) in plasma is a novel parameter in diseases affecting macrophage function and monocyte/macrophage load in the body. The concentration of sCD163 is probably reflecting the number of macrophages of the 'alternative macrophage activation' phenotype with a high CD163 expression playing a major role in dampening the inflammatory response and scavenging components of damaged cells. This has initiated a number of clinical studies for evaluation of sCD163 as a disease marker in inflammatory conditions e.g. infection, autoimmune disease, transplantation, atherosclerosis and cancer.,domain:The SRCR domain 3 mediates calcium-sensitive interaction with hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes.,function:Acute phase-regulated receptor involved in clearance and endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes by ma
