Abstract
Liver is the most vital organ of the. body, which perform fundamental role in the regulation of diverse processes, such as metabolism, secretion, storage, and detoxification of endogenous and exogenous substances. Due to these functions, hepatic diseases continue to arise as main problem for mankind worldwide.
