Abstract excerpt
The density of Langerhans cells (LC) is significantly decreased in skin sites exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UVR). This results in reduced antigen-presenting cell (APC) activity in UVR-exposed skin. We have previously reported that the recovery in the density of ATPase/Ia+ epidermal cells (EC) parallels the restoration of APC function in the UVR-exposed skin of mice. The present study was designed to determine...
