Soluble CD163, a Product of Monocyte/Macrophage Activation, Is Inversely Associated with Haemoglobin Levels in Placental Malaria

In Plasmodium falciparum malaria, activation of monocytes and macrophages (monocytes/macrophages) can result in the production of various inflammatory mediators that contribute to immunopathology. Soluble CD163 (sCD163) is a specific marker of monocyte/macrophage activation typically found at increa...
