CD163

Tonsil stained with CD163 antibody

CD163 is useful in identifying cells of monocyte/macrophage lineage in normal and neoplastic conditions. This antibody reacts with human scavenger receptor cysteinerich protein CD163 (p155, M130) found on mononuclear phagocytes including human monocytes and macrophages. Compared with the CD68 antibodies, studies have shown that CD163 demonstrated greater specificity as a marker of disorders of monocyte/macrophage origin. However, immunohistochemical evaluation of CD163 expression does not seem to be a sensitive means of determining monocytic differentiation of AMLs or myeloid sarcoma.
