Application |
Recommended Dilution |
1:100-1:200 |
Note :
IHC-P
Manual staining : Heat-induced antigen retrieval for 5 minutes in an autoclave at 121ºC in pH 9.0 Tris-EDTA-based Target Retrieval Solution buffer. Based on the testing result, it stains almost identically for pH 6.0 to 9.0.
This antibody has been validated by Autostainer including Agilent/Dako - Autostainer Link 48, Bond RX-Lecia, and Roche-Ventana Discovery ULTRA. The detailed steps by Autostainer please refer to the protocol.

Not tested in other applications.
Calculated MW
Positive Control
A moderate to strong cytoplasmic staining of macrophages should be seen in the interfollicular zones of the tonsil, lamina propria of the appendix and in the Kupffer cells of the liver (see images). Macrophages surrounding the vessels in brain specimens should stain positive, while microglial cells should not show CD163 staining.
Negative Control
CD163 staining should not be seen in hepatocytes and in epithelial cells of the appendix and tonsil.

Background
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]
