Dual lineages of Langerhans cells cooperate to restore the immune barrier after skin injury [PDF]
bioRxivAfter skin injury, the epidermal immune barrier is rebuilt by two sources of Langerhans cells. Resident Langerhans cells first move into the wound during re‐epithelialization, guided by CXCR2 signaling. Later, recruited monocytes become long‐lived Langerhans cells.

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1983 Langerhans cells are the bone-marrow-derived immune cells of the epidermis; they express Ia antigens and receptors for the Fc portion of IgG and complement components and are required for epidermal-cell-induced antigen-specific, syngeneic and allogeneic T-cell activitation and the generation of epidermal-cell-induced cytotoxic T cells.

The Cells of the Islets of Langerhans
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 ...

The current understanding on langerhans' cells and its role in oral lesions
Contemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2020 Objective: Description of Langerhans' cells (LCs) as an important antigen-presenting cells responsible for detecting the antigens, recruiting T-cells, and thereby initiating the immune response.

Ontogeny and function of epidermal murine Langerhans cells
Nature Immunology, 2017 Langerhans cells (LCs) are epidermis-resident antigen-presenting cells that share a common ontogeny with macrophages but function as dendritic cells (DCs). Their development, recruitment and retention in the epidermis is orchestrated by interactions with

Immunohistochemical analysis of S100-positive epidermal Langerhans cells in dermatofibroma, [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de DermatologiaDermatofibroma is a dermal fibrohistiocytic neoplasm. The Langerhans cells are the immunocompetent cells of the epidermis, and they represent the first defense barrier of the immune system towards the environment.

Langerhans Cells—Programmed by the Epidermis
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Langerhans cells (LCs) reside in the epidermis as a dense network of immune system sentinels. These cells determine the appropriate adaptive immune response (inflammation or tolerance) by interpreting the microenvironmental context in which they ...

Nail involvement in Langerhans cell histiocytosis: Diagnostic and prognostic Clues [PDF]
JDVI (Journal of General Procedural Dermatology & Venereology Indonesia), 2020 Introduction: Despite its rarity, nail involvement in Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) may show various clinical presentations. This study aims to show the roles of nail involvement in LCH patients as the diagnostic and prognostic clues.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 The identity of Langerhans cells (LCs) has been called into question of late due to the increasing evidence that LCs originate from macrophage lineage instead of dendritic cell (DC) lineage as previously thought.
