Cell Type Overview
Hepatocytes are the principal parenchymal cells of the liver, making up about 80% of its mass. They are metabolic powerhouses with functions including: protein synthesis (albumin, clotting factors), bile production, detoxification and metabolism of drugs/toxins, glycogen storage and glucose homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and cholesterol synthesis. They are arranged in plates radiating from central veins, with polarized faces facing sinusoids and bile canaliculi.
