CD163 Molecule, Hemoglobin Scavenger Receptor, CD163 Antigen,  M130, Scavenger Receptor Cysteine-Rich Type 1 Protein M130, Macrophage-Associated Antigen, SCARI1,  MM130,CD163.            

CD163 is an acute phase-regulated receptor which participates in the removal and endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes by macrophages and thus keeps tissues from free hemoglobin-mediated oxidative damage. Furthermore, CD163 partakes in the uptake and recycling of iron, through endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin and ensuing breakdown of heme. In addition, CD163 binds hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes in a calcium-dependent and pH-dependent way. CD163 demonstrates greater affinity for complexes of hemoglobin and multimeric haptoglobin of HP-1F phenotype than for complexes of hemoglobin and dimeric haptoglobin of HP-1S phenotype. Moreover, CD163 stimulates a cascade of intracellular signals which involves tyrosine kinase-dependent calcium recruitment, inositol triphosphate formation and secretion of IL-6 & CSF-1.

CD163 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 1015 amino acids (42-1050a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 109.8kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 100kDa). CD163 is expressed with an 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
