What Are Some Examples of Morphological Changes Due to Toxins?
Various morphological changes can occur due to toxin exposure, such as:
Cell Swelling: Often caused by the disruption of cellular ion balance, leading to water influx. Nuclear Changes: Such as apoptosis, characterized by chromatin condensation and nuclear fragmentation. Cytoplasmic Vacuolation: Formation of vacuoles within the cytoplasm, often a response to cellular stress. Membrane Blebbing: Indication of necrosis or apoptosis, where cell membrane forms bulges.
