One disease of this organ causes cancer patients who take irinotecan to experience severe diarrhea. The Child-Pugh and MELD scores are used to assess damage to this organ. Pericellular connective tissue acquires a "chicken-wire" appearance in one condition affecting this organ; that condition is also characterized by a type of apoptosis of parenchymal cells called ballooning degeneration. The copper-carrying protein ceruloplasmin is produced in this organ. Growth hormone stimulates the production of IGF-1 in this organ. In addition to the lungs, this organ is damaged as a result of A1AT deficiency. Fatty acids are broken down in this organ to produce ketone bodies. The space of Disse separates this organ's namesake cells from its sinusoids, which receive blood from the portal vein. Gluconeogenesis takes place in, for 10 points, what organ whose failure can lead to jaundice and can be caused by hepatitis?
