Detailed explanation-1: -Hepatocytes manufacture their own structural proteins and intracellular enzymes. Synthesis of proteins is by the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), and both the rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) are involved in secretion of the proteins formed.
Detailed explanation-2: -The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an essential organelle for protein and lipid synthesis in hepatocytes. ER homeostasis is vital to maintain normal hepatocyte physiology.
Detailed explanation-3: -The hepatocytes are round in shape containing a nucleus and an abundance of cellular organelles associated with metabolic and secretory functions. Organelles include endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough) and Golgi apparatus for secretory functions.
Detailed explanation-4: -Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (sER). Also, hepatocytes in the liver have abundant sER where it is involved in detoxification and glycogen metabolism.
