JXG is a non-LHC disorder which is a varied group of disorders defined by the accumulation of histiocytes that do not meet criteria to be diagnosed as Langerhans cells.

This genus was created in 1948 when Neitz and Thomas proposed the name " Cytauxzoon " to accommodate the " Theileria " like parasites with preerythrocytic schizogony in histiocytes.

Macrophages are diffusely scattered in the connective tissue and in liver ( Kupffer cells ), spleen and lymph nodes ( sinus histiocytes ), lungs ( alveolar macrophages ), and central nervous system ( microglia ).

Meningoencephalitis characterized by perivascular cuffing with proliferating adventitial cells, histiocytes, and a few plasma cells was seen in the gray and white matter of the cerebrum and in the leptomeninges of PPV-infected stillborn pigs.

The budding yeast cells formed in infected tissues are small ( ca . 2 4 �m ) and are characteristically seen forming in clusters within phagocytic cells, including histiocytes and other macrophages, as well as monocytes.

"' Hofbauer cells "'are oval eosinophilic histiocytes with granules and vacuoles found in the placenta, which are of mesenchymal origin, in mesoderm of the chorionic villus, particularly numerous in early pregnancy.
27.
Cells found in the dental pulp include fibroblasts ( the principal cell ), odontoblasts, defence cells like histiocytes, macrophage, granulocytes, mast cells and plasma cells . The nerve plexus of Raschkow is located central to the cell-free zone.
28.
In medicine, "'histiocytosis "'refers to an excessive number of histiocytes, ( " tissue macrophages " ), and is typically used to refer to a group of rare diseases which share this as a characteristic.
29.
The Histiocyte Society, a nonprofit organization, is a group of more than 200 physicians and scientists from around the world committed to improving the lives of patients with histiocytic disorders by conducting clinical and laboratory research into the causes and treatment of this disease.
30.
The disease has gone by several names, including Hand Sch�ller Christian disease, "'Abt-Letterer-Siwe disease "', and "'histiocytosis X "', until it was renamed in 1985 by the Histiocyte Society.
