The liver has a unique structure, especially at the level of individual cells. Hepatocytes, the main liver cells, release bile into tiny channels called bile canaliculi, which drain into the bile duct ...

A new study has found that MET (hepatocyte growth factor receptor) signaling plays a critical protective role in acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure (ALF). This pathway is shown to work as a ...

Differentiated hepatocyte organoids formed networks of small canals that allowed bile acid to pass, in a manner similar to human tissue. While organoids aim to mimic human organs, the liver’s ...

The liver is remarkable for its ability to regenerate after injury, yet when this process fails, acute liver failure (ALF) carries devastating outcomes. Traditional research methods, reliant on bulk ...
