  • Title: A new method for the visualization of the epidermal Langerhans cell and its application on normal and allergic skin.
    Author: Sjöborg S, Axelsson S, Falck B, Jacobsson S, Ringberg A.
    Journal: Acta Derm Venereol Suppl (Stockh); 1978; 58(79):23-30. PubMed ID: 278442.
    Abstract:
    When skin specimens are exposed in vitro to L-dopa and catecholamines these substances accumulate in the Langerhans cells where they can be visualized with the histofluorescence method of Falck and Hillarp. Some methodological aspects are discussed and a preliminary study of Langerhans cells in contact allergy is reported.
