2 LIVER abdominal cavity, beneath diaphragm hilum (portal vein, hepatic artery, lymphatic vessels, hepatic ducts) trabecular epithelium hepatocytes anastomosing plates separated by sinusoidal capillaries (fenestrated without diaphragm), reticular fibres function - produces most of the circulating plasma proteins - stores vitamins (A, D, K), iron - degrades drugs and toxins - produces bile - glucostatic function Mesher 2010

3 LIVER sinusoids discontinuous basal lamina, endothelium - Kupffer cells macrophages - perisinusoidal spaces of Disse between endothelium and hepatocytes; Ito cells (vit. A storage) hepatocytes - large polyhedral cells - rounded nucleus (two) fine chromatin, distinct nucleoli - abundant mitochondria - abundant RER (synthesis of plasma proteins) - abundant GA - extensive SER (enzymes for degradation, conjugation of toxins) - peroxisomes - glycogen granules - lipid droplets - bile canaliculi between Ross, Pawlina 2011
