Development of the liver

The liver bud or hepatic diverticulum is formed from an outgrowth of the endodermal epithelial lining of the foregut

The epithelial liver cords and primordia of the biliary system which develop from the hepatic diverticulum grow into the mesenchymal septum transversum

Between the layers of the ventral mesentery derived from the septum transversum these primordial cells differentiate into the parenchyma of the liver and the lining of the ducts of the biliary system

THE LIVER

Early liver morphogenesis1048667Liver is derived from endoderm1048667It forms from a diverticulum (bud) whichbranches out from the primitive gut1048667The pancreas develops dorsally while the liverbud develops ventrally1048667The liver metabolises nutrients absorbed from thegut Therefore first organ to receive intake1048667It removes toxic compounds which are absorbedby modifying them so they are soluble

The gallbladder bile ducts and liver begin to develop during the 4th week of embryogenesis as a ventral bud from the most caudal aspect of the foregut (the future duodenum) This bud is called the hepatic diverticulum and it grows between the

layers of the ventral mesentery (Fig 1) The hepatic diverticulum has two distinct components pars hepatica and pars cystica (1) The pars hepatica the most cranial component gives rise to the liver common hepatic duct and intrahepatic bile ducts The pars cystica the most caudal component gives rise to the cystic diverticulum The cystic diverticulum is the anlage of the gallbladder and the cystic duct The original hepatic diverticulum elongates to form the common bile duct These structures begin

as solid cords but by the 8th week of gestation a lumen has been established throughout the biliary tract

Liver development

Gross Anatomy The liver is divided) into

four lobes the right (the largest lobe) left quadrate and caudate lobes

Supplied with blood via the protal vein and hepatic artery

Blood carried away by the hepatic vein

It is connected to the diaphragm and abdomainal walls by five ligaments

Gall Bladder Muscular bag for the

storage concentration acidification and delivery of bile to small intestine

The liver is the only human organ that has the remarkable property of self-regeneration If a part of the liver is removed the remaining parts can grow back to its original size and shape

Fetal blood supplyIn the growing fetus a major source of

blood to the liver is the umbilical vein which supplies nutrients to the growing fetus The umbilical vein enters the abdomen at the umbilicus and passes upward along the free margin of the falciform ligament of the liver to the inferior surface of the liver There it joins with the left branch of the portal vein The ductus venosus carries blood from the left portal vein to the left hepatic vein and then to the inferior vena cava allowing placental blood to bypass the liver

Fetal blood supplyIn the fetus the liver develops throughout

normal gestation and does not perform the normal filtration of the infant liver The liver does not perform digestive processes because the fetus does not consume meals directly but receives nourishment from the mother via the placenta The fetal liver releases some blood stem cells that migrate to the fetal thymus so initially the lymphocytes called T-cells are created from fetal liver stem cells Once the fetus is delivered the formation of blood stem cells in infants shifts to the red bone marrow

During childhood-At birth the liver comprises roughly 4 of body weight and is at average 120g Over the course of development it will increase to 14ndash16 kg but will only take up 25ndash35 of body weight

Converts ammonia to urea

Other functionsProduces albumin the major osmolar

component of blood serumSynthesizes angiotensinogen the hormone

responsible for raising blood pressure when activated by renin (enzyme released when the kidney senses low blood pressure)
