The normal Langerhans cell and the LCH cell.

The British journal of cancer. Supplement - 1 Sept 1994

Chu T, Jaffe R

Abstract excerpt

The epidermal Langerhans cell is the bone marrow-derived dendritic, antigen-presenting cell of the skin. It is characterised by a unique intracytoplasmic organelle--the Birbeck granule--and constitutively expresses class II MHC molecules and the CD1a glycoprotein. The Langerhans cell represents one of the most potent antigen-presenting cells of the body, and fulfils an important role in detecting foreign antigen...
