Study Notes

Cell Death and Necrosis

  • Cell death can occur through various mechanisms, including necrosis, which is a non-physiological and irreversible process.
  • Necrosis is characterized by cellular swelling, ATP depletion, and cell membrane damage.
  • There are two main forms of necrosis: coagulative necrosis and liquefactive necrosis.

Coagulative Necrosis

  • Coagulative necrosis is characterized by the preservation of cellular outlines, with a loss of nuclei and an inflammatory infiltrate.
  • It occurs in response to ischemic injury, such as in kidney infarcts.
  • The necrotic cells show preserved outlines, but with a loss of nuclei, and an inflammatory infiltrate is present.

Liquefactive Necrosis

  • Liquefactive necrosis is characterized by the destruction of cellular membranes, leading to a dissolution of cellular contents.
  • It occurs in response to bacterial infections, such as in cases of tuberculosis.
  • The necrotic cells are digested by enzymes, leading to a liquefied appearance.

ATP Depletion and Cell Membrane Damage

  • ATP depletion is a critical factor in necrosis, as it leads to a loss of cellular function and membrane damage.
  • Cell membrane damage is a key feature of necrosis, leading to an influx of calcium and a loss of cellular homeostasis.

Morphology of Necrotic Cells

  • Necrotic cells show a more diffuse cytoplasmic appearance, with an increased eosinophilia.
  • The nucleus is often lost or pyknotic, and the cell membrane is damaged.

Laboratory Diagnosis of Necrosis

  • The laboratory diagnosis of necrosis is made by detecting an increase in serum levels of intracellular proteins, such as enzymes.
  • The diagnosis can also be made by observing the morphology of necrotic cells under a microscope.
