Inducible ablation of mouse Langerhans cells diminishes but fails to abrogate contact hypersensitivity [PDF]
Langerhans cells (LC) form a unique subset of dendritic cells ( DC) in the epidermis but so far their in vivo functions in skin immunity and tolerance could not be determined, in particular in relation to dermal DC ( dDC).
