The Hepatic Crown-like Structure: A Focal Point for Macrophage Evolution and Disease Response in Steatotic Liver Disease [PDF]

Livers
The hepatic crown-like structure (hCLS) is a shell-like aggregate of macrophages surrounding a large lipid-laden dying hepatocyte. This feature was initially assumed to simply be a response to increased inflammatory stress during steatotic liver disease,
