👉 The dying fluid, also known as the late-stage fluid or necrotic fluid, is a complex mixture of cellular debris, proteins, and other biomolecules that accumulates in tissues as they undergo necrosis—a form of cell death often triggered by severe injury, infection, or ischemia. Unlike apoptosis, which is a controlled and orderly process, necrosis results in the uncontrolled breakdown of cells, leading to inflammation and tissue damage. The dying fluid contains enzymes like proteases and lipases that degrade the extracellular matrix, further contributing to the breakdown of tissue structure. This fluid can persist in the tissue for a prolonged period, influencing the inflammatory response and potentially affecting the healing process.
