Anatomical terminology

In the hepatic lobule of the human digestive system, the space of Möll lies between the limiting plate and the connective tissue of the portal triad.[1]

It receives lymph from the space of Disse, "originates" more lymph, and drains it into the surrounding lymphatic vessels.[2] Perfluorooctane Sulfonate can cause damage to the liver, and specifically this space, while quercetin might undue that damage.[2]
