Irreversible injury to cells as a result of encounters with noxious stimuli invariably leads to cell death. Although the molecular effectors of apoptotic cell death have been largely. If the adaptive capability is exceeded or if the external stress is inherently harmful, cell injury develops fig. Some necrosis is regulated, via pathways differing from those controlling classical apoptosis, although necrosisapoptosis interconnectivity has been observed 14.
If you think of apoptosis as cell suicide, you can consider necrosis more in the line of cell murder. Caspase inhibition, which distinguishes apoptotic and nonapoptotic cell death, sometimes shifts apoptosis to necrosis or enhances necrosis.
