HISTOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF MORPHO–FUNCTIONAL UNITS OF THE LIVER (LIVER FRAGMENTS)

Аннотация

Liver fragments as a morphofunctional unit of the liver, being the main structural and functional unit of the liver, play a central role in the implementation of all its biological activities. Fragments of the liver include hepatocytes (liver cells), sinusoidal capillaries, a central vein, and a portal tract. These fragments carry out basic processes such as blood circulation, metabolism, detoxification, and bile production. The histological structure of the liver fragment ensures that each part of it performs specific tasks, including the radical arrangement of liver cells and the passage of blood through sinusoids, as well as the effective functioning of bile production and excretion systems. This article will focus on the analysis of the histological structure of liver fragments, their functional significance and role in the body.
