Clonal proliferation of Langerhans cells in Langerhans cell histiocytosis
The Lancet, 1994X-chromosome-inactivation assays can be used to assess clonality. We used such an assay at the human androgen-receptor gene locus in three female patients with histologically proven Langerhans cell histiocytosis. All patients were heterozygous for this locus.

Publisher Summary Langerhans cells are interspersed among keratinocytes which form the “perpetually transient population of the more superficial layers of the epidermis”. They are themselves, therefore, presumably “transients” which continually need replacing.

Langerhans cells (LCs) are the resident dendritic cells (DCs) of epidermis in human mucosal stratified squamous epithelium and the skin. A phenotypically similar DC has recently been discovered as a minor population in the murine dermis. In epidermis, LCs function as sentinel antigen‐presenting cells that can capture invading viruses such as herpes ...

Neuropeptides and Langerhans cells
Experimental Dermatology, 1998Abstract: The immune system and nervous system are intimately related. In addition to neuroendocrine mechanisms, neuropeptides have a variety of effects on immune cells and are responsible at least in part for neurogenic inflammation. The presence of neuropeptides in the skin has been well documented. The influence of neuropeptides on Langerhans cells

Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare disease. Depending on which organs are involved, the disease may prove rapidly fatal, develop a chronic reactivating but therapy-responsive pattern or resolve spontaneously. Understanding of the pathology of the disease is progressing rapidly, and while clinical trials of standard chemotherapy agents continue, it

Background: The cutaneous presentation of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is very rare and can be highly variable among individuals, which can often lead to a delay in diagnosis. Objective: To discuss a case report and literature review of important clinical indicators, histology, diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment guidelines.

Langerhans’ Cell Histiocytosis
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1996Langerhans' Cell Histiocytosis, formerly known as Histiocytosis X, and its related syndromes (i.e., eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Schuller-Christian disease, and Letterer-Siwe disease) are briefly reviewed. The biology, clinical manifestations, and treatment options of the localized, single form and the disseminated, multisystem form are also discussed.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an inflammatory myeloid neoplasia characterized by accumulation of clonal CD1a-positive immature dendritic cells (LCH cells) accompanied by infiltration of various inflammatory cells such as eosinophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, and osteoclast-like multinuclear giant cells.

The immunobiology of Langerhans cells
Immunology Today, 1981Interest in the biology of Langerhans cells has recently been stimulated by observations, reviewed here by Peter Friedmann, that they are active members o f the immune system.
