How Does Toxic Exposure Lead to Multi-Organ Failure?

These responses can include inflammation, oxidative stress, and direct cellular damage, leading to the failure of organs such as the liver, kidneys, lungs, and heart. The body's inability to maintain homeostasis due to toxic insult is the crux of multi-organ failure.
