What is Lysosomal Membrane Permeabilization (LMP)?
LMP is a critical event in the context of toxicology. It refers to the disruption of the lysosomal membrane, leading to the leakage of lysosomal enzymes into the cytoplasm. This can result in the activation of cell death pathways, such as apoptosis or necrosis, and plays a significant role in the toxicological effects of certain chemicals and drugs.
