Biological function

CD163 is a scavenger receptor on monocytes and macrophages that mediates clearance and endocytosis of hemoglobin-haptoglobin complexes. This pathway can limit exposure to free hemoglobin and associated oxidative damage and contributes to innate immune sensing.

Research context

CD163, also known as M130, is widely studied in monocyte and macrophage biology, hemoglobin-haptoglobin clearance, inflammation and innate immunity. Confirm species, assay format, application and product-level validation before reagent selection.
