A study was made on Langerhans cells (LC) in the dermal lesions of leprosy after epicutaneous application of 2:4 dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) to the lesion. LC were quantitated with OKT6 monoclonal antibody and indirect immunofluorescence. A depletion or reduction in the numbers of CD1+ epidermal LC was observed at both 4 and 24 hours after the application of DNCB in the lesions of both tuberculoid and lepromatous leprosy, compared to untreated lesions.
对麻风病皮肤损害处经皮涂抹2,4-二硝基氯苯(DNCB)后的朗格汉斯细胞(LC)进行了一项研究。用OKT6单克隆抗体和间接免疫荧光法定量LC。与未处理的损害相比,在结核样型和瘤型麻风病损害处涂抹DNCB后4小时和24小时均观察到CD1⁺表皮LC数量的减少或降低。
