Mouse anti Rat CD163, clone ED2 (MCA342R) used for the demonstration of infiltrating macrophages in corneal graft tissue by immunohistochemistry on acetone fixed cryosections.
Image caption:
Analysis of innate immune cells into a corneal graft. Ox-62+ DC and CD163+ macrophages were stained at the time points of corneal allograft rejection and calculated within the graft. Additionally CD161+ cells were counted within rejected corneal allografts to finally prove the efficacy of the depletion protocol in the peripheral tissue. Representative histological staining is shown for Ox-62 (A), CD163 (C), and CD161 (E) in NK deficient and control animals. B: No statistical difference was observed for infiltrating Ox-62+ DC. D: CD163+ macrophages infiltrated to a statistically significantly stronger extent in 3.2.3-treated animals when compared to control treated animals (*p<0.01). F: No CD161+ cells were stained in 3.2.3-treated recipients when compared to control treated control animals (**p<0.001).

Mouse anti rat CD163, clone ED2 used for the quantitation of CD163 (MCA342R) expressing cells in bronchiolar alvage by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence.
Image caption:
Quantification of CD163+ BAL cells by flow-cytometry. Fig (3a) shows representative flow-cytometry histograms from studied groups. Fluorescence was compared to unstained controls for 35,000 events in each histogram display, and the stained APC-CD163 positive events were compensated for unstained events by subtraction. A 5% error margin was accepted in the unstained image. GLN and IL-1/LPS showed no interaction on the percentage of CD163+ events (3b). The percentage of CD163+ events was significantly increased by GLN but not affected by IL-1/LPS. GLN and IL-1/LPS significantly interacted on the number of CD163+ macrophages (3c). CD163+ macrophage numbers were significantly increased in GLN+IL-1/LPS+ rats by both GLN and IL-1/LPS. Fig 3d shows immunofluorescence representation of CD163 stained lung regions from the GLN-IL-1/LPS+ and GLN+IL-1/LPS+ groups (white arrow points to zoomed cell in bottom right corner) (DAPI nuclear staining = blue; CD163 = red). (The significance of differences among the four groups was analyzed by two-way ANOVA. See statistical methods section for details on paired comparisons. Statistical significance was accepted as p<0.05: * compared to respective GLN- group, # compared to respective IL-1/LPS- group, ^ significant interaction between GLN and IL-1/LPS group).

Image caption:
Immunohistochemical detection of Tgm2 and CD163. Immunohistochemical detection of Tgm2 was performed on paraffin sections of control kidneys (a) and isogenic (b) and allogenic (c) renal transplants on day 9 after transplantation. CD163-positive cells were stained on sections of isogenic (e) and allogenic (f) kidney grafts. Tgm2 or CD163 are labeled in brown; sections are lightly stained with hemalum. In (d), double-staining experiments using ED1 antibodies directed to a CD68-like antigen (in blue) and Tgm2 (in brown) reveal that a majority of Tgm2-positive intravascular leukocytes are monocytes. Representative sections out of four individual experiments are shown. The arrow points to a double-positive blood leukocyte.

| Mouse anti Rat CD163, clone ED2 recognizes the rat ED2 cell surface glycoprotein (Dijkstra et al. 1985). A 175 kDa molecule also known as rat CD163, a member of the group B scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) family and an erythroblast adhesion receptor (Fabriek et al. 2007). Mouse anti rat CD163, clone ED2 was shown to detect approximately 50% of peritoneal macrophages, a subset of splenic macrophages, and most tissue macrophages. However, no staining was observed in monocytes or alveolar macrophages (Dijkstra et al. 1985, Beelen et al. 1987). In freshly isolated bone marrow, expression of CD163 was limited to mature macrophages only (Barbe et al. 1990). Clone ED2 may be used in immunohistology using antigen retrieval, and has also been described reacting with paraffin-embedded material following PLP fixation (Periodate-lysine-paraformaldehyde), see Whiteland et al. |
