yes the liver does maintain body temperature.
1. the liver produces acute phase proteins in response to cytokines which are as a result of inflammatory or infection or other insults to the body..these acute phase proteins act on the hypothalamus and it changes the set point..in response to the change in set point, it stimulates the release prostaglandins which will cause vasocontriction and increase core temperature and if the temperature is above the norm, there is decreased prostaglandins released and vasodilation in turn and increased heat loss.
2. the liver is a great store of and because there are many metabolic activities in the liver, these activities produce heat which is transfered to the blood and as in moves in and out of the liver the blood picks up the heat to distribute it to the body and thus maintaining body temperature.
