Space Of Disse

Hscs reside in the perisinusoidal space of disse.

Space of disse. The space of disse is localized among the lsecs and neighboring hepatocytes due to the loss of the basement membrane between the two 6. It contains the blood plasma. Hepatic stellate cells also known as perisinusoidal cells or ito cells are pericytes found in the perisinusoidal space of the liver also known as the space of disse. It is filled with the blood plasma.

The disse space contains stellate cells also called ito cells or lipocytes. Also apoe might stillbe on the remnants if not lost when shedding excess coat material. It is also called the space of disse. It interacts with the b100 on idls as suggested in the illustration.

This allows blood plasma to enter a space between the endothelial cells and the hepatocytes called the space of disse perisinuisoidal space. The space of disse is also called the perisinosoidal space. It was named after the german anatomist and histologist joseph hugo vincenz disse. These cells contain lipids and are involved in vitamin a metabolism.

Apoe is secreted into the space of disse by the hepatocyte. The low density lipoprotein receptor ldl r does notrequire apoe. The space of mall is located at the portal canal and is the region between the connective tissue and the liver parenchymal cells. Loss of the characteristic pores of endothelial cells or fenestrations is an early event in hepatic injury and is accompanied by secretion of ecm into the space of disse by hscs 11 12.

It is the space between the liver sinusoids and the hepatocytes. The perisinusoidal space is the thin and narrow space between a hepatocyte and a liver sinusoid. The hepatocytes have many microvilli which project into this space to increase absorption from the plasma. Sometimes the hepatic capsule glisson s capsule is visible as a thin layer of ct covered by simple squamous epithelium visceral peritoneum on the surface.

Blood cells and platelets are excluded. The space of mall is also in the liver. The disse space lies between hepatocytes and the sinusoids and is also referred to as the perisinusoidal space. The space as a fine slit between the sinusoid lining cells the hepatocytes the space of disse is at the limit of the resulution of the lm.

This space separates hepatocytes which are lined with a low density basal membrane from endothelial cells which form the walls of the hepatic sinusoids. In the perisusoidal space the hepatic stellate cells are located. Plumbagin alleviates capillarization of hepatic sinusoids in vitro by downregulating et 1 vegf ln and type iv collagen. The stellate cell is the major cell type involved in liver fibrosis which is the formation of scar tissue in response to liver damage.
