Langerhans cells (LC) in the skin lesions of 10 untreated indeterminate leprosy patients were defined by indirect immunofluorescence using monoclonal antibodies. No difference was observed in the numbers and distribution of epidermal LC in the indeterminate lesions and controls. However, the infiltrates of these lesions contained CD1+ cells. Most cells in the infiltrates HLA DR antigens.
