Langerhans cell histiocytosis presenting as a blueberry muffin rash
Langerhans cells, often referred to as the “macrophages of the skin”, are dendritic cells that normally reside in the epidermis and papillary dermis. Just like macrophages, they function as antigen-presenting cells that activate naive T cells.

Circadian control of interferon-sensitive gene expression in murine skin. [PDF]
The circadian clock coordinates a variety of immune responses with signals from the external environment to promote survival. We investigated the potential reciprocal relationship between the circadian clock and skin inflammation.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a group of rare disorders histologically characterized by the proliferation of Langerhans cells. Multiple organs and systems may be involved by the disease. Typically, there is bone involvement and, less frequently, lesions may be found in the lungs, liver, lymph nodes, skin, and mucosa.

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.

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.

Immunohistochemical study of Langerhans cells in periapical lesions : correlation with inflammatory cell infiltration and epithelial cell proliferation [PDF]
Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the presence and distribution of Langerhans cells in periapical lesions, and correlate this with inflammatory cell infiltration and epithelial cell proliferation.

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.

Rho-associated kinase regulates Langerhans cell morphology and responsiveness to tissue damage
Summary: Skin damage requires efficient immune cell responses to restore organ function. Epidermal-resident immune cells known as Langerhans cells use dendritic protrusions to surveil the skin microenvironment, which contains keratinocytes and peripheral

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.
