Early expression of FcgammaRI (CD64) on monocytes of cardiac surgical patients and higher density of monocyte anti-inflammatory scavenger CD163 receptor in on-pump patients

Abstract

FcgammaRI expression is increased very early during cardiac surgery. It is accompanied by an increase in CD163 scavenger receptor on monocytes.

It is supposed that CD163 reveales antiinflammatory activity in cardiac surgery.
