Excerpt from Health Knowledge, Vol. 2: A Thorough and Concise Knowledge of the Prevention, Causes, and Treatments of Disease, Simplified for Home Use, Thirty-Four Departments Including Prenatal Care and the Care of Infants, Health in Childhood, Pregnancy and Motherhood
A lobule has the following structure. From the small vessels lying round its margin, capillaries are given ofi, which run in toward the center of the lobule, where they empty into a small central vein. These central veins from neighboring lobules col lect together, and ultimately the blood passes into the hepatic veins, and so leaves the liver. Between the capillaries, which radiate from the central vein to the edge of the lobule, lie rows of large liver-cells, these forming the distinctive tissue of the organ, upon which its activity depends. Between the rows of cells also lie fine bile capillaries, which collect the bile produced by the cells and discharge it into the bile-ducts lying along the margins of the lobules. The liver-cells are among the largest cells in the body, and each contains one or two large, round nuclei. In the cells can often be seen droplets of fat or granules of glycogen or animal starch.
