Hepatocytes are the cells responsible for most of the main functions of the liver. They synthesize clotting factors, secrete bile salts and bile pigments, store lipids, vitamins and glycogen, biotransform toxic substances, waste products, drugs and hormones.
Hepatocytes are amazingly diverse cells that carry out a huge range of functions, just some of which are mentioned above.
hepatocytes are liver cells and they are responsible for protein snythesis and storage, and they excrete bile. It is polygonal in shape and is stacked in layers.
Hepatocytes are cells of liver. Hepatocytes secrete bile juice.
They secrete bile. They secrete bile.
Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), which is covered in ribosomes, is found in abundance in hepatocytes and is responsible for protein synthesis. The reason hepatocytes are rich in RER is because they produce a large amount of proteins, including clotting factors and plasma proteins.

Yes, one of the functions of hepatocytes is to store glycogen. This can be converted to glucose if the need arises.
Yes, the secretion of bile is one of the functions of hepatocytes. The bile released from hepatocytes drains into canaliculi, which become bile ductules and then the common bile duct.
Yes, one of the functions of hepatocytes is to convert toxic substances and waste products to forms that are less harmful and/or can be easily excreted from the body.
They secrete bile. They secrete bile.
To increase the surface area for absorption of hepatocytes by 6 fold from surrounding space of Disse. Typical explanation. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Hepatocytes which are cells of the liver
Hepatocytes are stable-type cells. This means that they are not constantly dividing, but maintain the capacity to re-enter the cell cycle and undergo mitosis if necessary.
yes. the endocrine part is the hormone secreting cell (hepatocytes).
Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), which is covered in ribosomes, is found in abundance in hepatocytes and is responsible for protein synthesis. The reason hepatocytes are rich in RER is because they produce a large amount of proteins, including clotting factors and plasma proteins.
