Mitochondrial volume decreased; membrane density increased with the mitochondrial crest decreased or disappeared |
Cellular swelling; cell membrane rupture; cell membrane forms selective ion channels |
Cell shrinkage; nuclear volume decrease; plasma membrane blebbing with apoptotic bodies |
Formation of double-membrane autophagosome and autophagic vacuoles; nuclear fragmentation with amorphous cytoplasm; swelling of Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum |
Mitochondrial shrinkage; mitochondrial membrane rupture |
Cellular swelling; cell membrane forms nonselective channels; plasma membrane blebbing with pyroptotic bodies |
