Dysregulation of the CD163-Haptoglobin Axis in the Airways of COPD Patients
Pulmonary iron levels are increased in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. Iron causes oxidative stress and is a nutrient for pathogenic bacteria. Iron may therefore play an important role in the pathophysiology of COPD.

Swine monocytes constitute a heterogeneous cell population containing subsets with distinct functional capacities or representing different maturational stages. Based on the expression of CD163, we have recently identified two monocyte subpopulations.

Soluble CD163 Levels and CD163+CD14+ Monocyte/Macrophage Counts in Patients with Asthma.
CD163-expressing macrophages are involved in the inflammatory response in asthma.To assess sputum and serum soluble CD163 (sCD163) and cytokine levels in patients with asthma. Further discussed was the difference between sCD163 and other classic inflammatory mediators.Sputum was successfully induced in asthma patients (n=85) and healthy controls (n=21).

Dexamethasone enhances CD163 expression in porcine IPKM immortalized macrophages [PDF]
AbstractIn our previous study, we established a unique porcine macrophage cell line, immortalized porcine kidney-derived macrophages (IPKM). The purpose of the present study was to further elucidate the characteristics of IPKM. CD163 is a scavenger receptor for the hemoglobin-haptoglobin complex and is used as a phenotypic marker of anti-inflammatory ...

Replication characteristics of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) European subtype 1 (Lelystad) and subtype 3 (Lena) strains in nasal mucosa and cells of the monocytic lineage: indications for the use of new receptors of PRRSV (Lena) [PDF]
Recently, it has been demonstrated that subtype 3 strains of European type porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) are more virulent/pathogenic than subtype 1 strains. This points to differences in the pathogenesis.

Targeting of CD163+ Macrophages in Inflammatory and Malignant Diseases [PDF]
The macrophage is a key cell in the pro- and anti-inflammatory response including that of the inflammatory microenvironment of malignant tumors. Much current drug development in chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer therefore focuses on the macrophage as a target for immunotherapy.
