Langerhans cells vary in their morphology and distribution in the vaginal epithelium of ovariectomized mice stimulated to hyperplasia and keratinization by oestrogen. When the stratum corneum was removed by topical vitamin A application, the shape and distribution of Langerhans cells were unaffected. It was concluded that Langerhans cell morphology and distribution depend on the configuration of the lower strata of the epithelium and not on the presence of a stratum corneum.
在雌激素刺激下发生增生和角化的去卵巢小鼠的阴道上皮中，朗格汉斯细胞的形态和分布存在差异。当通过局部应用维生素A去除角质层时，朗格汉斯细胞的形状和分布未受影响。得出的结论是，朗格汉斯细胞的形态和分布取决于上皮下层的结构，而不是角质层的存在。
