Clonal proliferation of Langerhans cells in Langerhans cell histiocytosis
Lancet, The, 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.

The morphological, enzymatical, immunocytochemical and functional properties of Langerhans' cells are briefly reviewed. Langerhans' cells are located mainly in the squamous stratified epithelia, but are also present in the thymus and in superficial lymphnodes.

Differentiation of Langerhans cells in Langerhans cell histiocytosis
Blood, 2001Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) consists of lesions composed of cells with a dendritic Langerhans cell (LC) phenotype. The clinical course of LCH ranges from spontaneous resolution to a chronic and sometimes lethal disease. We studied 25 patients with various clinical forms of the disease.

Langerhans' cell histiocytosis cells are activated langerhans' cells
The Journal of Pathology, 1994AbstractLangerhans' cell histiocytosis (LCH) is characterized by the presence of large mononucleated cells, associated with inflammatory cells. The Langerhans' cell (LC) lineage of the mononucleated cells is suggested by the presence of Birbeck granules and the expression of CD1a.

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

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
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 cells (LCs) function as the most peripheral outpost of the immune system. Although first identified in the skin, these cells probably originate in the bone marrow and migrate actively between the epidermis and the lymph nodes. They appear to play a critical role in immune surveillance and the development of contact allergy. The importance of

SUMMARYLangerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare condition that can affect any organ of the body. Patients of all ages may present to the dermatologist and it is important to make the diagnosis as quickly as possible, because time from presentation to diagnosis is of prognostic importance in adults with the disease.

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.
