please tell what is cytotoxic hypoxia.
Answers
The study is concerned with morphochemical changes in the metabolism and ultrastructure of the mitochondria and synaptical endings from the cortex of the hemispheres in rats under the influence of cyanide (7mg/kg) following 30 min, 2 hours and 24 hours after its administration. Subfractions of the light and heavy synaptosomes, as well as in the mitochondria of the cell bodies showed changes in the activity of the enzyme systems (cytochromoxidase, K+, Na+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase) and disturbances of the ultrastructure of the eliminated organella. After 24 hours the metabolism normalized, which may be explained by a biochemical brain plasticity at the subcellular level under conditions of histotoxic hypoxia.

Hypoxia is deficiency of oxygen in tissues ....
It is of four types
1.hypoxic hypoxia
2.anemic hypoxia
3.stagnant hypoxia and
4.histotoxic hypoxia...
Hypoxic hypoxia is when the inhaled air is deficient in oxygen ....
Anemic hypoxia is when oxygen carrying capacity of blood is low .....
Stagnant hypoxia is when blood supply to tissue is poor.....
Histotoxic hypoxia means oxygen cannot be utilising tissue for example cyanide poisoning ......
