Why the hepatic blood carried to the liver before it enters the systemic circulation?
Hepatocytes destroy harmful chemicals that are present in the blood. The liver's macrophages remove bacteria and other debris from the passing blood which allows proper maintenance of sugar, fatty acids & amino acid concentration in the blood. The liver is the key body organ involved in maintaining proper sugar, fatty acid, and amino acid concentration in the blood, and this system ensures that these substances pass through the liver before entering the systemic circulation. As blood percolates through the liver sinusoid's, some of the nutrients are removed to be stored or processed in various ways for release to the general circulation. At the same time, the hepatocytes are detoxifying alcohol and other possibly harmful chemicals present in the blood, and the liver's macrophages are removing bacteria and other debris from the passing blood.
