*Component items*:
  * *Liver sensory data* (*liver-sensory-data*)
   * Liver - glucose and osmoreceptors (glucose-and-osmoreceptors -> [BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD 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 -> [BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_LDRG LPC.PN.SG.LDRG]): pain from the liver parenchyma
  * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accessory_digestive_gland Liver - abdominal alimentary tract glands] ([BrainRegionLAC_PN_PSYM_GUT LAC.PN.PSYM.GUT] -> [HumanMusclesTorso glands]): Increase plasma protein synthesis and secretion
