Återcirkulerande, dendritiska och antigenpresenterande celler som innehåller racketformade korn (Birbeckgranuler). De finns huvudsakligen i överhudens taggcellslager (stratum spinosum) och innehåller rikligt med klass II MHC-molekyler.
Recirculating, dendritic, antigen-presenting cells containing characteristic racket-shaped granules (Birbeck granules). They are found principally in the stratum spinosum of the EPIDERMIS and are rich in Class II MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX molecules. Langerhans cells were the first dendritic cell to be described and have been a model of study for other dendritic cells (DCs), especially other migrating DCs such as dermal DCs and INTERSTITIAL DENDRITIC CELLS.
