ADAPTATION VS CELL INJURY

Cell injury is a reversible or irreversible conditions which occur after the limits of adaptive response to a stimulus are exceeded

Cells may recover if the injury is mild and transient (reversible) but if the stress is severe and progressive, cell death occurs (irreversible)

REVERSIBLE INJURY

Cellular swelling: Inability to maintain ion and fluid homeostasis

Fatty change : Lipid vacuoles in the cytoplasm
