Components

(generated)

Component items:

• Liver sensory data (liver-sensory-data)
  • Liver - glucose and osmoreceptors (glucose-and-osmoreceptors -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): sensation of lipids, glucose, and metabolites (after eating and drinking) and triggers the nervous system to make appropriate physiological changes
  • Liver - visceral receptors (visceral-receptors -> LPC.PN.SG.LDRG): pain from the liver parenchyma
• Liver - abdominal alimentary tract glands (LAC.PN.PSYM.GUT -> glands): Increase plasma protein synthesis and secretion
