The macrophage activation marker sCD163 is associated with changes in NAFLD and metabolic profile during lifestyle intervention in obese children

Abstract: sCD163 was associated with markers of liver injury and metabolic parameters in obese children, and changes in these parameters during lifestyle intervention. This may suggest that activated macrophages play a role in NAFLD and sCD163 may serve as a marker of liver disease severity and treatment effect.

“…sCD163 concentration is highly increased in various liver diseases characterized by inflammation and fibrosis, e.g. viral hepatitis (39) and cirrhosis (40), and, in a recent study in obese children, sCD163 was increased in children with increased ALAT, steatosis, and high pediatric NAFLD fibrosis index (41). Liver fat content is closely associated with obesity, but is greater in T2DM patients compared with BMI-matched non-diabetic subjects (27).…”

“…However, upon macrophage activation, CD163 is shed as its soluble form (sCD163) that can be measured in the circulation and serve as a biochemical marker of macrophage M1 activation [138]. sCD163 was associated with changes in NAFLD and metabolic profile during lifestyle intervention in obese children and in morbidly obese patients after bariatric surgery [139]. sCD163 increases in parallel with the severity of NAFLD and is reduced by lifestyle or surgical intervention, thus suggesting that macrophage M1 activation is reversible [139].…”

In this context, M2 KC polarization might protect against fatty liver disease morbidly injury [108].…”
