hepatic lobules (The liver is organized into hexagonal (6-sided) structures called hepatic lobules that are made of hepatocytes (liver cells) organized into wall-like rows that look like the spokes of a bicycle wheel. In the middle of each hepatic lobule is a central vein. The lobules are the structural and functional units of the liver and include all of the structures below.) hepatocytes (The hepatocytes are the cells that make up the liver. They carry out the functions of the liver such as detoxification, making plasma proteins, breaking down and recycling old or damaged RBCs and platelets, making bile, storing nutrients, etc.) hepatic sinusoids (The hepatic sinusoids are sinusoid capillaries found in the liver. Recall that sinusoid capillaries have large fenestrations (holes) that allow the large molecules such as proteins and even cells such as RBCs and platelets to cross the capillary.) portal triad (Portal triads are found at each of the corners of the hepatic lobules. They are made of the following 3 structures:) branches of the bile ducts (The branches of the bile duct receive bile from the bile canaliculi (tiny canals containing the bile made by the liver). The bile in the bile ducts then leave the liver through the common hepatic duct to travel to the duodenum.) branches of the hepatic artery (The branches of the hepatic artery supply oxygen-rich arterial blood to the hepatocytes.) branches of the hepatic portal vein (The branches of the hepatic portal vein carry venous blood rich with nutrients from the digestive organs to the liver.) bile canaliculi (The bile canaliculi are tiny canals that run between adjacent hepatocytes toward the bile duct branches in the portal triads. Their walls are formed by the apical membranes of adjoining hepatocytes. These structures are most easily seen on the anatomical models. central vein (These are veins in the middle of each hepatic lobule that receive blood from both the branches of the hepatic portal vein and the branches of the hepatic artery. The central veins eventually merge with a hepatic vein which drain the liver and empty into the inferior vena cava.)
