Detailed explanation-1: -The hypoxic cell then swells because of loss of volume control when membrane adenosine triphosphatase ionic pumps fail.
Detailed explanation-2: -The influx of sodium ions is further enforced by intracellular negatively charged proteins (anions). The intracellular hyperosmolarity finally results in water uptake, which leads to cell swelling, formation of protruding pockets, and lysis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular swelling (synonyms: hydropic change, vacuolar degeneration, cellular edema) is an acute reversible change resulting as a response to nonlethal injuries. It is an intracytoplasmic accumulation of water due to incapacity of the cells to maintain the ionic and fluid homeostasis.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hydropic degeneration, also known as cell swelling, is a term used to express the swelling that occurs in injured cells by an influx of water. Cell swelling is one of the first responses that occurs in an acute injury. Hypertrophy is a term used to describe an increase in the mass of a cell, tissue, or organ.
