Abstract Significance: The hemoglobin (Hb) scavenger receptor, CD163, is a macrophage-
specific protein and the upregulated expression of this receptor is one of the major changes …

Soluble CD163 (sCD163) is a circulating inflammatory mediator, indicative of acute and
chronic, systemic and non-systemic inflammatory conditions. It is the cleavage outcome …

Objective: Here we evaluated whether neurocognitive disorders in HIV-infected individuals
on effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) are associated with persistent monocyte activation …

Objective. Adipose tissue (AT) macrophages are increased in obesity and associated with
low grade inflammation. We aimed to characterize the phenotype of AT macrophages in …

Abstract Aims/hypothesis Soluble CD163 (sCD163) was recently identified as a strong risk
marker for developing type 2 diabetes. We hypothesised that sCD163 independently …

This study was to investigate the protective role of luteolin on inflammation-mediated
metabolic diseases, focusing on the role of luteolin in the modulation of the Toll-like receptor …

Chronic, low‑grade inflammation associated with obesity and diabetes result from the
infiltration of adipose and vascular tissue by immune cells and contributes to cardiovascular …

Objective: We tested our hypothesis that abdominal obesity when associated with increased
levels of systemic and central nervous system immunoinflammatory mediators contributes to …

Background The relation between low-grade inflammation and metabolic dysfunction in
obesity is not fully explored. Objective To evaluate immune parameters in the obese state …

Hyperglycemia, a hallmark of diabetes, can induce inflammatory programming of
macrophages. The macrophage scavenger receptor CD163 internalizes and degrades …
