Research on the Human Intrahepatic Bile Duct Epithelial Cells is essential to the study of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), biliary atresia, cholangiocarcinoma, and bile duct obstruction. The liver is the largest solid organ in the body, located in the upper right portion of the abdomen, beneath the diaphragm. It plays a crucial role in various functions, including blood filtration, detoxification, nutrient metabolism, and bile secretion, to help maintain bodily balance. Common liver diseases include hepatitis, fatty liver, and cirrhosis. The Human Intrahepatic Bile Duct Epithelial Cells are to be used with Human Intrahepatic Bile Duct Epithelial Cell Medium (Cat. No. ACM0067). This product is intended for laboratory in vitro use only. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
