You will be shocked to know that there are 500 functions of the liver in our body.
Well! The liver plays a versatile role in the human body.
Your liver has a lot of functions, such as digestion, metabolism, detoxification, filtration of blood, producing essential proteins etc.
But do you know the primary function of the liver?
The primary function of the liver is the production and secretion of bile.
In this post, you will learn about numerous functions of the liver, anatomy, histology, and physiology.
e liver is the heaviest organ and largest gland of your body which is around 1.5 kg weight.
Your liver is covered by Glisson’s capsule, made of white fibrous connective tissue.
Basically, the liver is an intraperitoneal organ that presents within the peritoneal cavity. You can’t feel the liver because most of the portion is covered with the ribcage.
Your liver cells or hepatocytes are responsible for many functions of the liver.
It is believed that the liver performs more than 500 different functions, usually in conjunction with other body systems.
Here, we will discuss only the major functions of the liver.
1. Function of the liver in the digestive system
2. Function of the liver in bilirubin metabolism
3. Role of the liver in deamination and urea production

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
3. Liver- Location
It is located in the upper and right side of the
abdominal cavity immediately beneath diaphragm and
above the stomach .
4. Liver -structure
Liver is the largest gland in human body
Weight- 1500 grams ( 2.5% of the total body weight)
Colour- Reddish-brown
Shape- Wedge
5. Liver-Lobes(Hepatic Lobes)
The liver has four lobes.
From Anterior view
1.Right lobe (Large)
2.Left lobe(Small)
From Posterior view
3.Caudate lobe
4.Quadrate lobe
6.
7. Liver-Lobules(Hepatic Lobules)
Hepatic lobule is the structural and functional unit of
liver.
There are about 50,000 to 100,000 lobules in the liver.
The lobule is a honeycomb-like structure and it is made
up of liver cells called hepatocytes (Liver cell).
8.
9. Hepatocytes and Hepatic Plates
Hepatocytes are arranged in
columns, which form the
hepatic plates.
Each plate is made up of two
columns of cells.
In between the two
columns of each plate lies a
bile canaliculus
10. In between the neighboring plates, a blood space
called sinusoid is present.
Sinusoid is lined by the endothelial cells.
In between the endothelial cells some special
macrophages called Kupffer cells are present(It destroy
the microorganism in blood).
11. Portal Triads
Each lobule is surrounded by many portal triads.
Each portal triad consists of three vessels:
1. A branch of hepatic artery
2. A branch of portal vein
3. A tributary of bile duct
12. „Blood supply to Liver
Hepatic artery
It arises directly from aorta and supplies oxygenated blood
to liver.
„Portal Vein
It brings deoxygenated blood from stomach, intestine,
spleen and pancreas. The blood from hepatic artery mixes with
blood from portal vein in hepatic sinusoids.
Hepatic Vein
Central veins from many lobules unite to form bigger veins,
which ultimately form hepatic veins (right and left) which open
into inferior vena cava.
15. Functions of the liver
1. Metabolism
a)Carbohydrate metabolism
Glucose is converted to glycogen for storage and glucagon
stimulates conversion of glycogen into glucose (Maintain blood
glucose level).
b) Fat metabolism
Stored fat can be converted to a energy
c) Protein metabolism
Deamination of amino acids.
Transamination
Synthesis of plasma proteins
16. 2.Breakdown of erythrocytes and defence against microbes (
Kupffer cells)
3. Detoxification of drugs and toxic substances –
These include ethanol (alcohol), waste products and
microbial toxins. This is because after absorption from the
alimentary tract, they travel in the blood to the liver where
they are largely metabolised so that levels in the blood
leaving the liver and which enters the systemic circulation are
inadequate to achieve therapeutic effects. This is known as
‘first pass metabolism’.
.
17. 3.Inactivation of hormones like Insulin, glucagon,
cortisol, aldosterone, thyroid and sex hormones
4. Production of heat.
5. Secretion of bile
The hepatocytes synthesise the constituents of bile from
the mixed arterial and venous blood in the sinusoids.
These include bile salts, bile pigments and cholesterol .
6. Storage of substances include:
Glycogen
Fat-soluble vitamins: A, D, E, K
Iron, copper
Water-soluble vitamins, e.g. vitamin B12.
19. Bile Juice
It secrete from Liver
Stored in gall bladder
Secrete in to Duodenum of Small intestine through
Heapto pancreatic ampulla through bile duct.
Volume : 800 to 1,200 mL/day
20. COMPOSITION OF BILE
Bile contains 97.6% of water and 2.4% of solids.
Solids include organic and inorganic substances
21. Functions of Bile juice
Bile salt
In the small intestine they emulsify fats, aiding
their digestion.
Fatty acids are insoluble in water, which makes
them very difficult to absorb through the intestinal wall.
Bile salts make cholesterol and fatty acids more water-
soluble, enabling both these and the fat-soluble vitamins
(vitamins A, D, E and K) to be readily absorbed.
22. Bile pigment
It is the excretory products in bile.
Bilirubin and biliverdin are the two bile pigments
formed during the breakdown of hemoglobin.
