Detailed explanation-1: -Hepatocytes (parenchymal cells) are the basic structural component of the liver, representing 60% of the total cell number and 80% of the total liver volume. They are arranged radially within the lobule to form cellular plates, between which the liver capillaries and the sinusoids are located.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hepatocyte is a cell in the body that manufactures serum albumin, fibrinogen, and the prothrombin group of clotting factors (except for Factors 3 and 4). It is the main site for the synthesis of lipoproteins, ceruloplasmin, transferrin, complement, and glycoproteins.
Detailed explanation-3: -Primary human hepatocytes, human hepatic cancer cell lines, and human stem cell–derived hepatocyte-like cells are three main hepatic cell types used in current models and exhibit divergent hepatic phenotypes.
