Integrins Are Required for Langerhans Cell Migration from the Epidermis
Topical exposure of mice to chemical allergens results in the migration of epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs) from the skin and their accumulation as immunostimulatory dendritic cells (DCs) in draining lymph nodes. Epidermal cell–derived cytokines have been implicated in the maturation and migration of LCs, but the adhesion molecules that regulate LC migration have not been studied. We hypothesiz...
متن کاملLangerhans Cells—Programmed by the Epidermis
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 encounter foreign substances. In a normal physiological, "non-dangerous" situation, LCs coordinate a continuous state of immune tolerance, preventing u...
متن کاملHuman embryonic epidermis contains a diverse Langerhans cell precursor pool.
Despite intense efforts, the exact phenotype of the epidermal Langerhans cell (LC) precursors during human ontogeny has not been determined yet. These elusive precursors are believed to migrate into the embryonic skin and to express primitive surface markers, including CD36, but not typical LC markers such as CD1a, CD1c and CD207. The aim of this study was to further characterize the phenotype ...
متن کاملLangerhans cell histiocytosis
Introduction: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), which was previously known as histiocytosis X, refers to a group of lesions that stimulate uncontrolled proliferation of cells. The purpose of this case was to report and describe a LCH case with mandibular bone involvement in a 2.5-year-old boy. Case reports: A 2.5 years old boy with LCH of mandibular jaw who has been treated by surgical inter...
متن کاملCurrent Treatment Strategy in Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder described as three different entities including eosinophilic granulomaof bone, the Hand-Schuller-Christian syndrome, and Letterer-Siwe disease. LCH is currently classified into singlesystem LCH, and multisystem LCH. Patients with single system LCH have an excellent prognosis, and are mostlytreated with local therapy. Multisystem LCH is subd...
