Langhans cells

Lanhans cells are a special type of cells that appear in the human body as a consequence of various diseases. They are diamond shaped and consist of many small crystals forming a core. One type of these cells is named Lanhansa. The appearance of these cells can be caused by a variety of reasons, including infections, allergies, autoimmune diseases and even radiation exposure. For example, Lanhanz cells in systemic lupus erythematosus are formed in blood vessels and are the main symptom of the disease. Another type of these cells are atypical Lanharz cells, which can be present in the blood of patients suffering from tuberculosis. These cells are called atypical because they have slightly different properties from the Lanhan cells of normal people. Tuberculosis disease has several symptoms, including the presence of atypical Lanzanza cells in the blood. In some cases, an infiltrative form of tuberculosis is diagnosed, which manifests itself in the form of atypical Lanzanch lymphoid cells. Treatment for Langhan cells includes the use of antibiotics and other medications, as well as diet and a healthy lifestyle. Atypical cells in tuberculosis can cause severe complications that can lead to the death of the patient. Therefore, timely detection and treatment of tuberculosis is very important.

Langhans cells are a special population of cells of multicellular organisms, characterized by the presence of mitochondria in the cell in the form of “grottos” or “multi-story buildings” filled with filamentous crystalloid inclusions, in the form of long filaments or rounded plates of irregular shape. It was first described by the German physiologist Otto Langhans in 1875.

This cell has three main components: a nucleus, a rough cytoplasm rich in lipids, and large granules containing mitochondria. For the first time he described in detail the existence of cytoplasmic zoocysts (dust) in protozoa and established their correspondence to Langhaus cells - a term proposed by the Russian researcher K. A. Maksimovich. In 1894 he won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

The nucleus of a Langhans cell has a specific shape in the form of an irregular circle. It occupies most of the cell. The cytoplasmic membrane covers the nucleus with a thin layer and, partially immersed in it, separates it from the cell body. The nucleus is usually located in the center of the cell, but can be located at an angle so that it is between the body and the processes of the cell. Near the area of ​​the cell facing the dense membrane, the body often
