Langerhans cell histiocytosis in adults: a case report and review of the literature

open access: yesOncoTarget, 2016
Background Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a proliferative disease of histiocyte-like cells that generally affects children. Immunohistochemistry is essential to obtain the correct diagnosis, and treatment protocols are controversial.

Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and Langerhans Cell Sarcoma: Current Understanding and Differential Diagnosis.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Experimental Hematopathology, 2016
Langerhans cell (LC) histiocytosis (LCH) and LC sarcoma (LCS) are proliferative processes consisting of cells having morphologic and phenotypic features of Langerhans cells (LCs), although the latter may have lost some of these features.

Coordinated Development of Immune Cell Populations in Vascularized Skin Organoids from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Vascularized skin organoids are developed from human induced pluripotent stem cells and contain macrophages, Langerhans cells, and neutrophils. Vascularized skin organoids offer a transformative platform to model skin biology and enable mechanistic investigations of inflammatory and hematologic skin disorders.

Pathophysiology of Langerhans cells

open access: yesJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2012
Langerhans cells (LCs) were first described by Paul Langerhans, in 1868, as dendritically shaped cells, which were located in the squamous epithelia of epidermis. Later on, these cells were identified in all stratified squamous epithelium of mammals. Dendritic cells (DCs) play an important role in local defense mechanisms in the epithelium.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the bone

open access: yesCi ji yi xue za zhi = Tzu-chi medical journal, 2017
of LCH remains unknown. According to molecular study, LCH is not a disease of the epidermal Langerhans cells, but rather one of the myeloid dendritic cells with mononuclear phagocyte dysregulation. The clinical signs and symptoms of LCH vary depending on

Synthetic Cell‐Based Tissues for Bottom‐Up Assembly of Artificial Lymphatic Organs

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Synthetic cells have emerged as a novel biomimetic approach for fundamental research and therapeutic interventions. T cell activating synthetic cells are able to form 3D tissue‐like structures by self‐assembly into lymphatic bottom‐up tissues (lymphBUT) with tunable biochemical and biomechanical functionalities as well as metabolic activity are ...
