A manual of human physiology, including histology and microscopical anatomy, with special reference to the requirements of practical medicine . Fig. 142. Human liver-cells—the cell protoplasm con-tains biliary colouring matter and oil-globules b; d, has two nuclei. Fig. 143. Appearance of the liver-cells after withholdingfood for 36 hours. in the cell protoplasm (Fig. 142).] Each cell is in relation with the wide-meshedblood-capillaries (d, d), and also with the much narrower mesh-work of bileducts (I, x.) It is important to observe that the appearance of the cells varies with theperiod of digestion. During hunger, the liver cells are finely granular and verycloudy (Fig. 143). About 13 hours after a full meal, especially of starchy food,they contain coarse glancing masses of glycogen (Fig. 144, 2). The protoplasmnear the surface of the cell is condensed, and a fine net-work stretches towards thecentre of the cell, and in it is suspended the nucleus (Kupffer, Heidenhain). [Thenet-work within the cells is best seen after solution of the glycogen.] 4. The bile ducts.—The finest bile capillaries or canaliculi arise from thece
