A hepatic lobule is a small division of the liver defined at the microscopic (histological scale). The hepatic lobule is a building block of the liver matter, consisting of a portal triad, hepatocytes arranged in linear cords between a capillary network, and a central vein.

It should not be confused with the anatomic lobes of the liver (caudate lobe, quadrate lobe, left lobe, and right lobe), or any of the functional lobe classification systems.

The two-dimensional microarchitecture of the liver can be viewed from multiple different perspectives:[1]

Name Shape Model
classical lobule[2] hexagonal; divided into concentric centrilobular, midzonal, periportal parts anatomical
portal lobule[3] triangular; centered on a portal triad bile secretion
acinus [4] elliptical or diamond-shaped; divided into zone I (periportal), zone II (transition zone), and zone III (pericentral) blood flow and metabolic

The term "hepatic lobule", without qualification, typically refers to the classical lobule.

Structure

The hepatic lobule can be described in terms of metabolic "zones", describing the hepatic acinus (terminal acinus). Each zone is centered on the line connecting two portal triads and extends outwards to the two adjacent central veins. The periportal zone I is nearest to the entering vascular supply and receives the most oxygenated blood, making it least sensitive to ischemic injury while making it very susceptible to viral hepatitis. Conversely, the centrilobular zone III has the poorest oxygenation, and will be most affected during a time of ischemia.[5]

Portal triad

The portal triad is a functional unit of the liver and consists of three vessels, the interlobular arterie, the interlobular vein and a bile duct.

Function

Zones differ by function:

  • zone I hepatocytes are specialized for oxidative liver functions such as gluconeogenesis, β-oxidation of fatty acids and cholesterol synthesis
  • zone III cells are more important for glycolysis, lipogenesis and cytochrome P-450-based drug detoxification.[6] This specialization is reflected histologically; the detoxifying zone III cells have the highest concentration of CYP2E1 and thus are most sensitive to NAPQI production in acetaminophen toxicity.[7]

Other zonal injury patterns include zone I deposition of hemosiderin in hemochromatosis and zone II necrosis in yellow fever.[6]

Clinical significance

Bridging fibrosis, a type of fibrosis seen in several types of liver injury, describes fibrosis from the central vein to the portal triad.[8]
