Langerhans cell histiocytosis [PDF]
Abstract Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is caused by clonal expansion of myeloid precursors that differentiate into CD1a+/CD207+ cells in lesions that leads to a spectrum of organ involvement and dysfunction. The pathogenic cells are defined by constitutive activation of the MAPK signaling pathway.

Langerhans' Cell Histiocytosis
Adult onset Langerhans cell histiocytosis is uncommon. A 29 year old man is presented who developed classic cutaneous disease with severe systemic involvement. He responded completely to a two month course of thalidomide.

Hepatic Langerhans cell histiocytosis: Report of a rare case
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare neoplastic disease characterized by abnormal proliferation of Langerhans cells infiltrating various organs, resulting in organ dysfunction.

Emergence of collective propulsion through cell-cell adhesion [PDF]
The mechanisms driving the collective movement of cells remain poorly understood. To contribute toward resolving this mystery, a model was formulated to theoretically explore the possible functions of polarized cell-cell adhesion in collective cell migration. The model consists of an amoeba cell with polarized cell-cell adhesion, which is controlled by

The Cells of the Islets of Langerhans [PDF]
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 diabetes.

The introduction of bowel cancer population screening programs has had a profound impact on gastrointestinal pathology. While the focus is mainly on quality assurance of diagnoses relevant for the outcome of these programs (colorectal cancer and its precursors), incidental findings are increasingly diagnosed.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis in adults: literature review
Langerhans cells histiocytosis is a variant of malignant histiocytosis. The course and symptoms vary. patients with localized forms have a better prognosis, because local therapy is effective.

Beneficial effects of intercellular interactions between pancreatic islet cells in blood glucose regulation [PDF]
Glucose homeostasis is controlled by the islets of Langerhans which are equipped with alpha-cells increasing the blood glucose level, beta-cells decreasing it, and delta-cells the precise role of which still needs identifying. Although intercellular communications between these endocrine cells have recently been observed, their roles in glucose ...

A cell membrane model that reproduces cortical flow-driven cell migration and collective movement [PDF]
Many fundamental biological processes are dependent on cellular migration. Although the mechanical mechanisms of single-cell migration are relatively well understood, those underlying migration of multiple cells adhered to each other in a cluster, referred to as cluster migration, are poorly understood.
