Mechanisms of cell injury
Derangements
in the energy
supply and
utilization
Loss of
membrane
integrity
Ionic and
water
imbalance
Changes in
the genome
or disorders of
its realization
Disorders of
intracellular
regulatory
mechanisms
Derangements
of energy
supply and
utilization
Impairment of
ATP dependent
systems
A decrease in ATP
transport to the
sites of utilization
A decrease in
ATP production
Loss of
membrane
integrity
Cellular
overhydration
Detergent effect
of amphiphylic
compounds
Oxidative stress
Activation of
intracellular
hydrolases
Impairement by bacterial
toxins, viral proteins, lytic
complement fragments,
products (perforins)
of cytolytic lymphocytes
Defects in
membrane-bound
enzymes or
lipoproteins
Impaired
resynthesis of
membrane
costituents
Ionic and water
imbalance
Increased
extracellular
osmotic pressure
Changes in the cellular genome or
disorders of its realization
Derepression
of pathogenic
genes
Repression
of the “vital”
genes
Insertion of the alien
