Liver structural transformation after partial hepatectomy and repeated partial hepatectomy in rats: A renewed view on liver regeneration

Figure 1 Schematic and histological figures of liver lobule. A: Schematic illustration of mutual compatibility of “classical” and “portal” lobules with hepatic acini. I, II, III – the zones of the acinus. The hatched periportal area “a” – localized in the 1^st zone of the acinus. The hatched pericentral area “b” – localized in the 3^rd zone of the acinus. Orange arrow – central vein; black arrow – portal triad. B: Pericentral hepatocytes (CK8) ObX40; OcX20; C: Periportal hepatocytes (CK8). ObX40; OcX20.
