| Langer's lines | Lines which can be extrapolated by connecting linear openings made when a round pin is driven into the skin of a cadaver, resulting from the principal axis of orientation of the subcutaneous connective tissue (collagen) fibres of the dermis; they vary in direction with the region of the body surface. Synonym: Langer's lines. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Langer's muscle | pectorodorsalis muscle |

| langer-giedion syndrome | <syndrome> Autosomal dominant disorder characterised by cone-shaped epiphyses in the hands and multiple cartilaginous exostoses. Mental retardation and abnormalities of chromosome 8 are often present. The exostoses in this syndrome appear identical to those of hereditary multiple exostoses (exostoses, hereditary multiple). (12 Dec 1998) |
| Langerhans | <anatomy> Groups of cells found within the pancreas: A cells and B-cells secrete insulin and glucagon. See: D cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| langerhans cell | Paul langerhans, german pathologist, 1847-1888 1. Star-shaped cells in the deeper portions of the germinative layer of the epidermis. 2. Irregulare wandering cells in the intercellular spaces of rhe cornea. Synonym: Langerhans stellate corpuscles. (16 Dec 1997) |
| langerhans cell histiocytoses | An immunologic disorder of unknown cause where there is proliferation of histiocytes (a type of cell in the immune system) in the bloodstream. The disorder is characterised by inflammation of the bronchioles and small pulmonary vessels that leads to fibrosis and destruction of alveolar cell walls. Cigarette smoking is considered a risk factor. Individuals with this disorder are also at increased risk for spontaneous pneumothorax. Symptoms include cough, chest pains, shortness of breath, fever, weight loss and malaise. Bronchoscopy with biopsy confirms the diagnosis. Childhood forms exist and cause more systemic symptoms and findings such as failure to thrive, weight loss, fevers, irritability, rash and bone pains. Treatment is with corticosteroids. (27 Sep 1997) |
| langerhans cells | Recirculating, dendritic, antigen-presenting cells containing characteristic racket-shaped granules (birbeck granules). They are found principally in the stratum spinosum of the epidermis and are rich in class II major histocompatibility complex molecules. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Langerhans' cells | Dendritic clear cell's in the epidermis, containing distinctive granules that appear rod-or racket-shaped in section, but lacking tonofilaments, melanosomes, and desmosomes; they carry surface receptors for immunoglobulin (Fc) and complement (C3), and are believed to be antigen fixing and processing cell's of monocytic origin; active participants in cutaneous delayed hypersensitivity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Langerhans' granule | A small tennis racket-shaped membrane-bound granule with characteristic cross-striated internal ultrastructure; first reported in Langerhans' cells of the epidermis. Synonym: Birbeck's granule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Langerhans' islands | <anatomy> Groups of cells found within the pancreas: A cells and B-cells secrete insulin and glucagon. See: D cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Langerhans, Paul | <person> B. Berlin, July 25th, 1847. Was a Physician and an Anatomist and became Professor of Pathological Anatomy in Freiburg. On his retirement went to Madeira. D. Funchal, July 20th, 1888. Islets of Langerhans - collection of cells in the pancreas which produce insulin and glucagon. Cells of Langerhans - dendritic cells found in the epidermis of the skin. Lived: 1847-1888. (05 Dec 1998) |
| Langhans giant cell | Multinucleate cells formed by fusion of epithelioid macrophages and associated with the central part of early tubercular lesions. Similar to foreign body giant cells, but with the nuclei peripherally located. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Langhans' cells | Multinucleated giant cell's seen in tuberculosis and other granulomas; the nuclei are arranged in an arciform manner at the periphery of the cell's. Synonym: Langhans'-type giant cells. Synonym: cytotrophoblastic cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Langhans' layer | The inner layer of the trophoblast. Synonym: Langhans' layer. (05 Mar 2000) |

In mathematics, logic and computer science, a formal language is a set of finite-length words (i.e. character strings) drawn from some finite alphabet, and the scientific theory that deals with these entities is known as formal language theory. Note that we can talk about formal language in many contexts (scientific, legal, linguistic and so on), meaning a mode of expression more careful and accurate, or more mannered than everyday speech. ...
