CD163 is a 130 kDa membrane glycoprotein. CD163 was recently identified as an acute phase-regulated transmembrane protein whose function is to mediate the endocytosis of haptoglobin-hemoglobin complexes. Solubilized in plasma, CD163 functions as an anti-inflammatory signal and has many roles in disease processes that range from autoimmune conditions such as Rheumatoid Arthritis to Atherosclerosis. CD163 is expressed exclusively on the cell surface of human monocytes and macrophages that evolve predominantly in the late phase of inflammation, and is, therefore, very useful for macrophage-phenotyping. This receptor is expressed on the surface of monocytes (low expression) and histiocytes (high expression). Staining for CD163 has been helpful in distinguishing synovial macrophages from synovial intimal fibroblasts in the setting of Rheumatoid Arthritis, where its specificity for macrophages was found to be superior to that of CD68, which does not discriminate between these cell types. Flow-cytometry studies have confirmed that CD163 expres-sion is limited to Leukemias with monocytic differentiation. Positive staining can be seen in the skin (histiocytes), gut, Kupffer cells, a few aveolar macrophages, the main population of macrophages in the placenta, and in varying degrees in macrophages in inflammed tissue including tumor tissue, depending on the inflammatory stage. Red-pulp, not white-pulp, macrophages in the spleen and cortical macrophages of the thymus are stained by CD163.

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. Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.12 Ref.18After 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. Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.12 Ref.18. Subunit structure: Interacts with CSNK2B. Ref.9. Subcellular location: Soluble CD163: Secreted Ref.7 Ref.8. Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note: Isoform 1 and isoform 2 show a lower surface expression when expressed in cells. Ref.7 Ref.8. Tissue specificity: Expressed in monocytes and mature macrophages such as Kupffer cells in the liver, red pulp macrophages in the spleen, cortical macrophages in the thymus, resident bone marrow macrophages and meningeal macrophages of the central nervous system. Expressed also in blood. Isoform 1 is the lowest abundant in the blood. Isoform 2 is the lowest abundant in the liver and the spleen. Isoform 3 is the predominant isoform detected in the blood. Ref.7 Ref.10 Ref.18. Induction: Induced by anti-inflammatory mediators such as glucocorticoids, interleukin-6/IL6 and interleukin-10/IL10; suppressed by proinflammatory mediators like bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), IFNG/IFN-gamma and TNF. Ref.7 Ref.8. Domain: The SRCR domain 3 mediates calcium-sensitive interaction with hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes. Ref.15. Post-translational modification: A soluble form (sCD163) is produced by proteolytic shedding which can be induced by lipopolysaccharide, phorbol ester and Fc region of immunoglobulin gamma. This cleavage is dependent on protein kinase C and tyrosine kinases and can be blocked by protease inhibitors. The shedding is inhibited by the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase TIMP3, and thus probably induced by membrane-bound metalloproteinases ADAMs.Phosphorylated. Probable. Ref.9. Miscellaneous: Intravenous lipopolysaccharide (LPS) produces a rapid rise of sCD163 in plasma of patient as it induces metalloproteinase-mediated shedding from monocytes surface. Long-term LPS infusion finally increases expression of the membrane-bound form on circulating monocytes.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. Sequence similarities: Contains 9 SRCR domains. Caution: It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-6 is the initiator.
