Signaling pathways, microenvironment, and targeted treatments in Langerhans cell histiocytosis

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2022
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an inflammatory myeloid malignancy in the “L-group” histiocytosis. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway activating mutations are detectable in nearly all LCH lesions. However, the pathogenic roles of MAPK

Infantile and Adult Scabies mimicking Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis Clinically and Histopathologically

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Medicine, 2022
Scabies is an infestation caused by the Sarcoptes scabiei burrowing into the epidermis. Histopathologically scabies infestation may reveal Langerhans cell hyperplasia which might cause misdiagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in some cases.
