Abstract

In our study, the following are modern information about the structural and functional organization of cell membranes, the internal apparatus, as well as the cell organelle. The features of the functioning of the structural and dynamic genome are shown, including the main epigenetic mechanisms of gene expression regulation. The cell pathology section describes the main pathological processes that occur in cells after reversible and irreversible damage. The mechanisms and signaling pathways of the phenomenon, markers of cellular aging are highlighted, as well as the significance of this phenomenon in normal and pathological conditions. The main mechanisms of hypoxic and free-radical necrobiosis are described. The mechanisms, signaling pathways, and significance for the norm and pathology of two types of programmed cell death, autophagy and apoptosis, are discussed in detail. The prospect of using fundamental knowledge about the molecular mechanisms of life activity to improve the treatment of the most urgent types of pathology is shown.
