The Liver Cell
?The-Liver Cell? shows an artistically rendered liver cell.
The liver cell is cuboidal and measures about 20-30 µm.
The liver cell has many functions. It is involved with protein synthesis, protein storage, metabolism of carbohydrates, formation of cholesterol, bile salts and phospholipids, and participates in detoxification and excretion of both exogenous and endogenous products.
The style is reminiscent of surrealism . The complexity of brain function is reduced to its 3 major functions.

Anatomy of Cell Function; Receive, Process, Produce, and Export
?Anatomy of Cell Function;-receive, process/produce, and export ? shows the basic process involved in human liver cellular function
The cell receives, processes, and exports.
The complexity of these three basic functions will unfold not only in the cell but in all functional systems.
The style is reminiscent of surrealism.

Red Cell in the Blood Stream
?Red Cell in the Blood Stream? shows a single red cell floating down the river of plasma. The deformability and biconcave shape of the red cell is essential to its function. The red cell is about 7.5 to 8.5?m in diameter and 1.5 to 2.0 ?m in thickness. They lack a nucleus. There are about 20?30 trillion red cells in the body representing 25% of cells in the body. In contrast there are 7.4 billion people in the world
Hemoglobin is the functional marvel in the red cell. The hemoglobin in the red cells take up oxygen in the lungs and transport it to the cells via the capillaries. The approximately 8?m cells have to fit into the approximately 5?m capillary. The red cells deform and release oxygen into the tissues .

The Neuron ? ?Il Presidente?
They chose the brain cell or neuron for its leadership, and they playfully called it ?Il Presidente.? Crucially, the neuron could connect not only with other brain cells, but also (directly or indirectly) with every cell in the body. The neuron could also react to the outside environment.

?Il presidente? made his first speech referencing Hillel?s sage advice: ?If I am not for the body of my person who will be? And if I am only for the body of my person, then what am I? If not now when then??
Adam and Eve nodded at each other, satisfied with their choice.

E Pluribus Unum ? Out of Many, One
The cells knew they would be around for a long time; their grand scheme was to pursue Oneness. They understood the consequences of bullying, selfishness, greed, and jealousy. They also knew the power of goodness, integrity, humility, and sharing. The cells resolved to fight the evil aspects of humanity. 56 cells from all walks of life discussed the issue of collaborative community living, and drafted a constitution they all signed in Philadelphia. The cells submitted this proposal to Adam and Eve. It read:
?We the Cells of the Body, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United Cells of the Body.?

A Cancer Cell – Aberrant Sense of Time

The image represents the life of a single set of columnar cells showing a progressioon of generations as the cell lives dies and is regenerated. The orange secretions of the cell are seen in the background of the pink cytoplasm and the purple nucleus. The nucleus of the newesest generation and cell is seen as a clock that has become distorted and time has become disordered. This process is abnormal and is a forerunner of a malignant process.
