Hepatocytes – Zone Classification
- Zone 1 hepatocytes immediately surround the portal tracts and primarily are involved in oxidative energy metabolism.
- Zone 3 hepatocytes immediately surround the central veins and are the primary location for the biotransformation of drugs.
- Zone 2 hepatocytes lie in between zone 1 and 3 and have mixed functionality.
