Letter to the Editor and Comments on: Intravital dynamic and correlative imaging reveals diffusion-dominated canalicular and flow-augmented ductular bile flux [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Bile, the central metabolic product of the liver, is secreted by hepatocytes into bile canaliculi (BC), tubular subcellular structures of 0.5-2 $\mu$m diameter which are formed by the apical membranes of juxtaposed hepatocytes. BC interconnect to build a highly ramified 3D network that collects and transports bile towards larger interlobular bile ducts
