Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum is primarily involved in the given process
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) is continuous with the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) but has few or no ribosomes on its cytoplasmic surface
Functions of the SER include synthesis of carbohydrates, lipids, and steroid hormones; detoxification of medications and poisons; and storage of calcium ions
Liver cells are called hepatocytes with an abundant SER which is the principal site of production of lipoprotein particles, which carry lipids via the bloodstream to other parts of the body
It also contains enzymes that catalyze a series of reactions to detoxify both lipid-soluble drugs and various harmful compounds produced by metabolism
