CD163 / Alexa Fluor 488 / EDHu-1

Product Details
Description NB110-40686 recognizes the human CD163 cell surface antigen, a 130-140kD glycoprotein expressed by tissue macrophages. CD163 is not expressed by resting peripheral blood leucocytes, but expression may be induced on monocytes by culture in dexamethasone.
Conjugate Alexa Fluor 488
Clone EDHu-1
Target Species Bovine, Guinea Pig, Human, Monkey, Porcine, Primate, Rhesus, Sheep
Applications ELISA, FC, ICC, IF, IHC-P, WB, IHC-Fr, IHC

About CD163
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]
About Alexa Fluor 488
Alexa Fluor™ 488 (AF488, Alexa 488) has an excitation peak at 488 nm and an emission peak at 496 nm, and is considered a high-performance alternative to FITC. Alexa 488 is one of the most popular Alexa Fluor™ dyes and is widely used in Fluorescence Microscopy, flow cytometry, and for staining low expression markers. It is bright, highly photostable, resistant to pH changes, and less susceptible to photobleaching. Alexa 488 and is similar in size, brightness and application to DyLight™ 488, iFluor® 488 and CF®488A.
