List of results

- WBR252 + (Hepatic stellate cells, also known as eith … Hepatic stellate cells, also known as either perisinusoidal cells or Ito cells (earlier lipocytes or fat-storing cells), are pericytes found in the perisinusoidal space of the liver also known as the space of Disse. Following ingestion, vitamin A, a lipid soluble vitamin, undergoes hepatic metabolism, whereby hepatic parenchymal cells absorb vitamin A in the form of retinyl esters.
