Cynomolgus Monkey Hepatocytes are from the liver of Cynomolgus Monkey (Macaca fascicularis), a type of non-human primate experimental animal model that can accurately reflect human development and pathological characteristics. Hepatocytes are specialized epithelial cells in the liver and are the main cell type of the liver. They are highly polarized. Hepatocytes are responsible for a variety of cellular functions, including detoxification, lipid and protein metabolism and immune cell activation. Studies show that hepatocytes can activate innate immunity to invading microorganisms by secreting innate immune proteins. In addition, the molecular mechanisms related to hepatocyte polarity are of great significance for the studies of hepatocyte biology and the pathogenesis of liver diseases.
