Does brain trauma injury produce necrosis or apoptosis brain cell damage?

Brain trauma can lead to cell death, necrosis. Apoptosis is planned cell death, like under fetal development, so never leads to this option.

What type of cells undergo apoptosis?
Apoptosis is the process of controlled cell death. The cell undergoing apoptosis uses it own energy to efficiently dispose of cellular material with minimal damage to surrounding tissue. All cells can undergo apoptosis if they reach a stage whereby they recognise (through complex cellular feedback mechanisms) that they are unable to continue operating efficiently. This is not to be confused with Necrosis, which is an uncontrolled 'catastrophic' cell death pathway. Necrosis is usually a result of serious tissue damage and results in the death of multiple cells in an uncontrolled manner, leaving cellular debree throughout the tissue. This results in inflamation and further damage to the tissue. Sincerely, Your friendly neighbourhood biomedical scientist.
The restoration of homeostasis after an injury involves two related processes?

Damage or harm to the body is defined as a?
Damage or harm to the body is defined as a...............INJURY!
What kind of damage can a cervical injury cause to a body?
One type of damage a cervical injury can cause is paralysis, or the loss of one's ability to move. This type of injury can also cause fractures, or cracks in one's bones.
Which of the following expressions is not a function of mitosis production of gametes growth replacement of cells or repair of damage from injury?
Production of gametes
What is the difference between necrosis and ischemia?
necrosis is death of cells with underlying/ or death of cells that cause inflammation. necrosis has to have an underlying injury. ischemia is decreased blood supply to tissues/ cells due to obstruction/ constriction of vasculature - indeed, this is an injury, and can lead to necrosis of cells if not resolved quickly! Note that apoptosis is programmed cell death - i.e. nucleus control is involved, and there is no inflammation - it is clean cell death! this is awesome.
What can cause a cell to die?
In simple terms cells perform apoptosis in which the program thereself to die through a series of key regulatory proteins. Examples include: when the cells maintain injury to parts or to specific parts of DNA or when the cells are infected with viruses. In other words cells can 'program' to die when mechanical damage is sustained or when external factors come into play. The outcome is to protect the organism as a whole.

What type of earthquake causes the most human injury and damage?
earthquakes that produce more horizontal
What is your elomalacia in a Dog?
Myelomalacia is the softening or necrosis of the spinal cord after an acute injury.
The restoration of homeostasis after an injury involves two related processes?
necrosis and fibrous
What is the medical term meaning cell death due to tissue injury?
necrosis
What is the scientific name for necrosis?
The scientific name for necrosis is "necrosis." It is a type of cell death that is characterized by the premature death of cells in living tissue due to external factors like injury, infection, or toxins.
What can cause necrosis and what does necrosis look like?
Necrosis can be caused by external or internal factors. External factors include blood vessels damage, mechanical trauma, and ischemia. Extremely high or low temperature can cause disruption of cells, which may result in necrosis. Internal factors like trophoneurotic disorder, pancreatic enzymes, injury and paralysis of nerve cells can also cause necrosis. Sometimes steroids can also cause necrosis.
What diseases affect the hip?
The hip is susceptible to damage from a number of diseases and disorders, including arthritis, traumatic injury, avascular necrosis, cerebral palsy, or Legg-Calve-Perthes (LCP) disease in young patients.
Sudden tissue necrosis resulting from insufficient blood supply is?
Sudden necrosis caused by lack of blood flow is called ischemia. This happens in cases of injury, and can lead to gangrene.
What is the difference between brain injury and brain damage?
The difference is that one can have a brain injury and not have brain damage. Essentially, brain damage is caused by injury or trauma to the brain. However, not every injury to the brain will cause brain damage.
