A hepatocyte is a cell of the main parenchymal tissue of the liver. Hepatocytes make up 70-85% of the liver's mass.These cells are involved in: 1  Protein synthesis. 2  Protein storage. 3  Transformation of carbohydrates. 4  Synthesis of cholesterol, bile salts and phospholipids.he typical hepatocyte is cubical with sides of 20-30 Âµm, (in comparison, a human hair has a diameter of 17 to 180 Âµm). The typical volume of a hepatocyte is 3.4 x 10 â9 cm 3. Rough endoplasmic reticulum is abundant in hepatocytes, whereas most cells in the body have only small amounts.
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), also a glycoprotein. of 190 kDa heterodimer, remained stable in serum. after 20 freeze-thaw cycles, or after 4-months of. frozen storage, but increased by 20% after 10-. months of frozen storage, which was possibly.
