title: Lack of relationship between Langerhans cells, epidermal cell proliferation and epidermal G1 chalone.
abstract: Mouse tail interscale epidermis contains numerous Langerhans cells, whereas the adjacent scale regions are devoid of these cells. No difference in a) proliferative activity and b) inhibitory effect of the epidermal G1 chalone can be demonstrated in both regions. A direct relationship between Langerhans cells and growth control may be excluded.
