Surface Coating of Islets of Langerhans by Activated Polyethylene Glycol [PDF]
علوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2008 The final treatment for diabetes is transplantation of islets of Langerhans. One of the new proposed methods for immunological preservation of transplanted cells is coating of cell surface by polyethylene glycol.

Migration and maturation of Langerhans cells in skin transplants and explants
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1990 The behavior of Langerhans cells (LC) has been examined after skin transplantation and in an organ culture system. Within 24 h (and even within 4 h of culture), LC in epidermal sheets from allografts, isografts, and explants dramatically increased in ...

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Insulin resistance is the biological phenomenon in which the human body's normal response to the metabolic hormone insulin is compromised. Insulin is a regulator of most of the essential metabolic steps in the body that control energy homoeostasis, so dysregulation leads to multiple diverse human diseases including, most prominently, Type 2 ...

Immunologic functions of Ia-bearing epidermal Langerhans cells.
Journal of Immunology, 1978 Langerhans cells (LC) constitute a morphologically well-characterized minor subpopulation of the mammalian epidermis whose functional role is still a matter of conjecture.

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Traditional first‐line topical treatments for plaque psoriasis, particularly corticosteroids and vitamin D analogs, frequently have only limited efficacy for long‐term use, and present difficulties with safety and adherence. Objectives In this systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), we assessed ...

Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis [PDF]
Cancer Control, 2014 Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare histiocytic disorder of unknown etiopathogenesis. Its clinical presentation is variable and ranges from isolated skin or bone disease to a life-threatening multisystem condition. LCH can occur at any age but is more frequent in the pediatric population. A neoplastic origin of this disease has been suggested

An insight into the origin, distribution, and techniques of demonstration of Langerhans cells
SRM Journal of Research in Dental Sciences, 2017 Langerhans cells (LCs), first described by Paul Langerhans, a German physician in 1868, are dendritic cells predominantly observed in the suprabasal layers of the epidermis and the oral epithelium.

Marshall Journal of Medicine, 2022 Langerhans cells are dendritic cells that form the antigenic barrier of the human body. They occur in nearly any tissue but are most prevalent in the skin, submucosa of the bronchial tree, and other mucosae.
