Detailed explanation-1: -The cells of the liver produce about 800 to 1, 000 milliliters (about 27 to 34 fluid ounces) of bile every day. Bile is a yellow, brownish or olive-green liquid that helps our body digest fats. The liver cells secrete the bile into small canals that lead to the common bile duct.
Detailed explanation-2: -The majority of bile acids are efficiently reabsorbed from the ileum, secreted into the portal venous system, and returned to the liver in a process known as enterohepatic recirculation [2][3][4]. Bile is produced by hepatocytes and it is then modified by the cholangiocytes lining the bile ducts.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bile is a unique and vital aqueous secretion of the liver that is formed by the hepatocyte and modified down stream by absorptive and secretory properties of the bile duct epithelium.
