Answer:
Kupffer cells, also known as stellate macrophages due to their particular structure while viewed under a microscope, were first identified by scientist Karl Wilhelm von Kupffer, after whom the cells were named, in 1876.
These cells, whose origin is in the yolk sack during fetal development, later on move to the liver where they will stay and further differentiate into their mature versions.
These cells are part of the liver cells, and are found particularly on the walls of the sinusoids, where they perform their two most important tasks. First, these cells are part of the immune system, as they are essentially macrophages. However, their role is pretty unique, as they are responsible not just for phagocytosis of invading bacteria, and other pathogens, and initiating immune responses, but also, this cell plays a role in decomposing red blood cells who are dying, and taking up the hemoglobin from them to further break that into reusable globin, and the heme group, from which iron is further extracted to be re-used and also to create bilirrubin, a part of bile.
Finally, these cells have been found to be connected to hepatic cirrhosis, as in their process of detoxifying ethanol, they produce toxins that force the liver cells to produce collagen, and thus to become fibrous.
Answer:
Spend more time outdoors, eat more red meat, supplement their deficiency with vitamins
Explanation:
Hello!
Vitamin D is a very important micronutrient within our bodies. This is due to its ability to regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body. If a patient is Vitamin D deficient it can lead to a magnitude of problems such as bone deformities such as rickets, significant loss in bone density and depression. Thankfully, Vitamin D is one of the easiest vitamins to obtain. If a patient is not at risk for Melanoma, or other forms of skin diseases, they can obtain Vitamin D by simply spending more time outdoors in direct sunlight. Vitamin D can also be obtained through altering ones diet to include more red meat, egg yolks, liver, fish, and select breakfast cereals. If these options are not applicable to a patient a healthcare physician can supplement them in the form of Vitamin D tablets of varying concentration.
