Microbiote buccal et foie
Résumé
The liver has many important biological functions for the body, as it is involved in the storage and distribution of nutrients (carbohydrates to glycogen, lipids to triglycerides), the digestion of fats, the synthesis of blood proteins, and the detoxification of alcohol and drugs. The liver can be affected by various diseases such as viral or drug-induced hepatitis, fibrosis and cirrhosis, in which damaged hepatocytes are progressively replaced by scar tissue.
