Langerhans' Cell Histiocytosis
Dermatology Online Journal, 2002 Adult onset Langerhans cell histiocytosis is uncommon. A 29 year old man is presented who developed classic cutaneous disease with severe systemic involvement. He responded completely to a two month course of thalidomide.

Histopathology, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 254-263, January 2023., 2023 The introduction of bowel cancer population screening programs has had a profound impact on gastrointestinal pathology. While the focus is mainly on quality assurance of diagnoses relevant for the outcome of these programs (colorectal cancer and its precursors), incidental findings are increasingly diagnosed.

The Cells of the Islets of Langerhans [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2018 Islets of Langerhans are islands of endocrine cells scattered throughout the pancreas. A number of new studies have pointed to the potential for conversion of non-β islet cells in to insulin-producing β-cells to replenish β-cell mass as a means to treat diabetes.

Emergence of collective propulsion through cell-cell adhesion [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 97, 042413 (2018), 2017 The mechanisms driving the collective movement of cells remain poorly understood. To contribute toward resolving this mystery, a model was formulated to theoretically explore the possible functions of polarized cell-cell adhesion in collective cell migration. The model consists of an amoeba cell with polarized cell-cell adhesion, which is controlled by

Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis with Extensive Spinal and Thyroid Gland Involvement Presenting with Quadriparesis: An Unusual Case in an Adult Patient [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2011 Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the spine frequently presents as a solitary lesion and rarely results in neurological deficit. Involvement of thyroid tissue is also rare, even in multifocal disease presentations.

Beneficial effects of intercellular interactions between pancreatic islet cells in blood glucose regulation [PDF]
, 2009 Glucose homeostasis is controlled by the islets of Langerhans which are equipped with alpha-cells increasing the blood glucose level, beta-cells decreasing it, and delta-cells the precise role of which still needs identifying. Although intercellular communications between these endocrine cells have recently been observed, their roles in glucose ...
