Overview

The liver is the largest internal organ and a central metabolic, synthetic and detoxifying hub, organized into lobules of hepatocytes arrayed around sinusoids that receive a dual blood supply from the portal vein and hepatic artery. It synthesizes albumin, clotting factors and bile, regulates glucose and lipid metabolism, stores glycogen and micronutrients, and biotransforms drugs, hormones and toxins through phase I and phase II enzyme systems before biliary or renal excretion. Its regenerative capacity is considerable, yet sustained injury produces steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis and ultimately cirrhosis and carcinoma. Research on the liver therefore ranges from organ structure and enzymology to toxicant-induced injury and protection. Work in this area includes the burden and trends of chronic liver disease in hospital cohorts, hepatic tuberculosis presenting as a pseudotumour, structural changes induced by zinc-oxide nanoparticles with vitamin E protection, attenuation of oxidative stress and carbon-tetrachloride toxicity by buspirone, effects of organophosphate and herbicide exposure on hepatic transferases in animal models, purification and characterization of xanthine oxidase from liver, polycystic liver disease, elastography in portal hypertension, and hepatic injury following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. The journal publishes peer-reviewed clinical and experimental research on hepatic structure, function and disease.
