Hepatology Flashcards
Anatomy
What is functional unit of liver?
Acinus
Anatomy
How liver is anatomically and functionally divided?
Anatomically by falciparum ligament & functionally by blood supply
Anatomy
How many segments liver contains?
8
Anatomy
Liver segments consists of?
Lobules
Anatomy
Hepatic lobule contains?
1.Central vein
2.Radiating sinusoids (এরা সিংগেল হেপাটোসাইট প্লেট দিয়ে আলাদা করা থাকে)
3.peripheral portal tract(Portal vein,hepatic artery, bile duct)
Anatomy
From portal tract blood flow outwards..T/F
Bile flows in opposite..(inward) T/F
T
Anatomy
Zones of hepatocyte?
Zone 1/peripheral/portal Triad এর পাশের zone :
Highest oxygen,Nutrients and Toxins
Function:
Gluconeogenesis
Bile salt formation
বাকী গুলা zone 3(pericentral/portal triad থেকে দুরের zone) তে হবে
Anatomy
Function of zone 3?
1.Glycolysis
2.lipolysis
3. Monooxygenation
4.Glucoronidation
Anatomy
Why liver injury is patchy in nature?
Due to different zone of hepatocytes
Anatomy
Fibrosis occurs by?
Stellate /ito cell.. Ito cell থাকে space of Disse তে।এটা হচ্ছে Hepatocyte আর sinusoid এর মাঝের স্পেস
Anatomy
About sinusoid?
No basement membrane
Contains fenestrae 0.1 micrometer
Lined by endothelial cell
Anatomy
For pathogenesis of fibrosis, ito cell differentiating into?
Main factor?
Into Myo fibroblasts.
Mainly by TGF beta 1
Anatomy
Activated stillete cell causes portal hypertension by?
ET1 (endothelin 1)
Vasoconstrictor
Anatomy
Function of stellate C ll
1.fibrosis
2.Vit A store
3.Defense
Anatomy
Liver get nutrition & oxygen from?
Nutrient for portal vein & o2 from Hepatic artery
Anatomy
Who provide driving force for bile flow in liver?
Hepatocyte by osmotic gradient
Anatomy
Hepatocyte secret bile into?
Biliary canaliculi
Length and width of common bile duct?
5cm and 5 mm apprx
Anatomy
How common bile duct pressure is maintained?
Rhythmic contraction of sphinchter of oddi (Normally exceeds GB prsr in fasting state)
Anatomy
GB tone is maintained by?
1.Vagal activity
2.CCK
So after feeding cck cause GB contraction and overcome the prsr of CBD and sphincter relaxed,thus bile flows to duodenum
Anatomy
Which portion of biliary channel contain valves of heister(cresentic fold)?
Cystic duct..Beaded appearance on cholangiography
Anatomy
How much albumin is produced in liver per day?
8-14 g
Anatomy
Excretory function of liver?
Bile salt
Bilirubin
Drugs
Phospholipids
Cholesterol
Anatomy
Protein synthesis in liver?
Albumin
Coagulation factors
Complements
Haptoglobulin
Alpha 1 anti trypsin
মনে থাকবে না ২ টা
Cerruloplasmin
Transferrin
Anatomy
After conjugation Bilirubin is secreted into?
Bile canaliculi
Anatomy
Components of Bile
1.Bile Acid(from cholesterol)
2.Bilirubin
3.phospholipid
4 Cholesterol

Anatomy
Minerals and vitamins stored in liver?
Iron(ferritin and hemosiderin),Cu
Vit-ADB12K
Also convert 7 dehydrocholesterol to 25 hydroxy vit D
Anatomy
Most abundant tissue macrophage?
Kupffer cell
LFT includes?
1.Bilirubin
2.Albumin
3.AST,ALT,ALP,GGT
Liver function best assessed by?
Bilirubin,Albumin and PT
T/F
PT is included in LFT
F
