Histology of late larval zebrafish liver. The polarized hepatocytes are sandwiched between the apical bile space in which the cholangiocytes reside, and a basolateral space occupied by scattered hepatic stellate cells and bounded by the vasculature. Within these blood vessels, resident macrophages (Kupffer cells) reside. In hepatic steatosis, the hepatocytes fill with cytoplasmic lipid droplets (red circles). Drawing based on models and data presented in Refs. [57, 61]
