Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: CD163 is a scavenger receptor predominantly expressed on the surfaces of macrophages in various mammalian species and is a marker of anti-inflammatory (M2-like) macrophages. High density of CD163-positive tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) is associated with worse prognosis in various patient tumors.
