LIVER HISTOLOGY: STRUCTURAL ORGANIZATION AND ITS ROLE IN PHYSIOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY
Keywords:
Histology, liver, hepatocytes, sinusoids, portal triad, lobule structure.Abstract
The liver, as the largest gland in the human body, plays an essential role in metabolism, detoxification, and synthesis of vital biomolecules. Histological analysis of liver architecture reveals a highly organized structure composed of hepatocytes arranged in lobules, interconnected by vascular and biliary networks. This study aims to provide a detailed histological overview of the human liver, emphasizing its structural organization and correlation with functional processes.
