During foetal development, the liver has an important haemopoetic function, producing red and white blood cells from tissue between the hepatic cells and vessel walls.
One of the functions of the liver is to produce a protein called albumin. Patients with liver cirrhosis have developed permanent damage to their liver, causing portions of the liver to be replaced with scar tissue.When this happens, the liver's ability to produce proteins (such as albumin) becomes impaired.hen the liver becomes heavily damaged, it can stop making certain proteins, including the blood protein albumin. As a result, the levels of albumin and other proteins can be measured to diagnose liver cirrhosis.
