Abstract

Experiments comparing the L-dopa histofluorescence method for the visualization of epidermal Langerhans' cells and immunocytochemical labelling with monoclonal anti-T6 antibodies have demonstrated the existence of two functionally different human Langerhans' cells: those that take up L-dopa by a mediated transport and those that lack the capacity to take up L-dopa.
