Epidermal Langerhans' cell densities influence survival in mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome.

Abstract:

:Because Langerhans' cells (LC) (CD1a-positive epidermal cells) have been discussed to be involved in the pathogenesis of mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome, the authors examined the influence of densities of Langerhans' cells and, concurrently, of other phenotypes retrospectively on survival of 35 patients. Cell densities were assessed on cryostat sections (alkaline phosphatase antialkaline phosphatase-technique) of the respective diagnostic biopsy specimens. Additionally, two clinical parameters (age, stage of disease) were evaluated. CD1a-positive epidermal cells were demonstrated to be the only cell population being significantly associated (P = 0.011) with survival. Death resulting from mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome was significantly (P = 0.003) less frequent in patients with epidermal CD1a-positive cell densities higher than 90 cells/mm2 (optimal break point) as compared with patients with lower numbers. These results suggest that Langerhans' cells have a significant impact on prognosis of patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome. They play an important role in the host defense mechanisms against these lymphomas rather than to favor their progression as proposed recently.
