what are 5 general functions of the liver?

A
  1. metabolism (lipids, carbs, proteins)
  2. production of blood proteins, factors, and substances
  3. detox
  4. produce hepatic bile (exocrine fxn)

  2. kupffer cells
  3. ito cells
  4. pit cells
  5. hepatic progenitor cells
19
Q

matching (liver cells)

  1. store lipids for immediate use
  2. natural killer cells
  3. APC; phagocytosis of debris and aged RBCs
  4. responsible for regenerative capabilities
  5. store vitamin A
  6. produce collagen 1, 3, 4 and growth factors
  7. biles moves from (these cells) towards the bile duct branch in the portal triad
  8. micovilliated cuboid cells possessing lateral bile canaliculi in a linear arrangement
  9. aka stellate macrophages
A. hepatocytes
B. kupffer cells
C. ito cells

Q

what 3 structures make up the portal triad?

A
  1. hepatic artery
  2. portal vein
  3. bile duct

(lymph vessels found)

21
Q

what is the name of the structure that is best described as dilated, fenestrated thin walled vessels found between the rows of hepatocytes carrying a mixture of mostly venous (75%) and some arterial (25%) blood?

A

hepatic sinusoids

22
Q

in hepatic sinusoids, what percentage is venous blood and what percentage is arterial blood?

A

venous- 75%

arterial- 25%

23
Q

blood flows from the portal triad (hepatic artery, portal vein, bile duct) toward the _____.

A

central vein

24
Q

what structure is a fenestrated thin walled vessel that collects blood from the hepatic sinusoids?

A

central vein

25
Q

what is another name for the Space of Disse in the liver?

A

perisinusoidal space

26
Q

where is the perisinusoidal space?

A

between the hepatocytes and the fenestrated hepatic sinusoids

27
Q

why can the liver take over functioning for the spleen?

A

perisinusoidal space

  1. blood can directly contact the microvilliated surfaces of the hepatocytes
  2. flow slows enough so the cells can interact with the blood and its contents
28
Q

T/F. Glisson’s capsule is a dense irregular CT structure covered with serosa.

A

true
