Abstract
PROGRESSIVE autolysis of visceral cells is a feature of experimentally produced shock in animals. This death of individual cells is associated with disruption of sub-cellular cytoplasmic particles (lysosomes) with release and activation of degradative enzymes1,2. Intra- and extracellular components may become substrates for these circulating enzymes as metabolic acidosis and hypoxia damage other tissues.
