Anti-CD163 Antibody [EDHu-1] (FITC) (A280342)

Anti-CD163 Antibody [EDHu-1] (FITC)

Mouse monoclonal [EDHu-1] antibody to CD163 (FITC).

This antibody recognises the human CD163 cell surface antigen, a 130-140 kDa glycoprotein expressed by tissue macrophages. CD163 expression may be induced on monocytes by culture in dexamethasone.Clone EDHu-1 is reported to inhibit the binding of haptoglobin/hemoglobin to CD163. Truncation mutation analysis demonstrates binding of EDHu-1 occurs via the N-terminal region of CD163 containing the first three scavenger receptor, Cysteine-rich, SRCR domains the third domain being critical as, cleavage of this domain at the major cleavage site ASP-265 abrogates binding to the N-terminal fragment.
