The Langerhans Cell*

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1965
Since Langerhans (1) first described the presence of gold-positive dendritic cells in the epidermis, their nature has been an unsettled question. These cells, which morphologically resemble melanocytes, are free of pigment and are not seen when stained for melanin nor when the dopa stain is used; but they can be demonstrated with gold chloride methods.
