The stellate veins are veins that lie beneath the fibrous tunic of the kidney. They are stellate in arrangement and are derived from the capillary network, into which the terminal branches of the interlobular arteries break up. These join to form the interlobular veins, which pass inward between the rays.

Caffeine ameliorates hemodynamic derangements and portosystemic collaterals in cirrhotic rats.

Hsu SJ1, Lee FY, Wang SS, Hsin IF, Lin TY, Huang HC, Chang CC, Chuang CL, Ho HL, Lin HC, Lee SD.
Hepatology (Baltimore, Md.).Hepatology.2015 May;61(5):1672-84. doi: 10.1002/hep.27679. Epub 2015 Mar 23.
Portal hypertension (PH), a pathophysiological derangement of liver cirrhosis, is characterized by hyperdynamic circulation, angiogenesis, and portosystemic collaterals. These may lead to lethal complications, such as variceal bleeding. Caffeine has been noted for its effects on liver inflammation,

Chronic passive venous congestion drives hepatic fibrogenesis via sinusoidal thrombosis and mechanical forces.

Simonetto DA1, Yang HY, Yin M, de Assuncao TM, Kwon JH, Hilscher M, Pan S, Yang L, Bi Y, Beyder A, Cao S, Simari RD, Ehman R, Kamath PS, Shah VH.

Chronic passive hepatic congestion (congestive hepatopathy) leads to hepatic fibrosis; however, the mechanisms involved in this process are not well understood. We developed a murine experimental model of congestive hepatopathy through partial ligation of the inferior vena cava (pIVCL). C57BL/6 and

Hepatic toll-like receptor 4 expression is associated with portal inflammation and fibrosis in patients with NAFLD.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Notwithstanding evidences implicating the lipopolysaccharides (LPS)/toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) axis in the pathogenesis of NAFLD, there are no studies aimed to characterize hepatic TLR4 expression in NAFLD patients. We aimed to analyse hepatic TLR4 expression and to verify it

… The stellate pericytes in the postcapillary venules (10-30 μm) gradually changed into flat tape-like smooth muscle cells, which ran circularly in the collecting venules and veins (30-200 μm). … The large collecting veins were finally overwhelmed by superficial thin layer of the myocardium, their own smooth muscle cells being very sparse. … This suggests that large veins have poor ability to contract by themselves but are influenced by the surrounding myocardial cells. …

… Postcapillary venules appeared covered with pericytes, while collecting venules had stellate periendothelial cells which formed a basket-like network around the vessel wall. … As the size of the venous vessels increased, the stellate periendothelial cells became flat in shape and dense in arrangement. … Although they had some characteristics similar to the smooth muscle cells in surface structure, no spindle-shaped smooth muscle cells were recognizable even in the superficial cerebral veins. …
