Difference between Lysis and Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria

Lysis vs. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria

Lysis (Greek λύσις lýsis, "a loosing" from λύειν lýein, "to unbind") refers to the breaking down of the membrane of a cell, often by viral, enzymic, or osmotic (that is, "lytic") mechanisms that compromise its integrity. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare, acquired, life-threatening disease of the blood characterized by destruction of red blood cells by the complement system, a part of the body's innate immune system.

Similarities between Lysis and Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria

Lysis and Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cell membrane, Hemolysis.

Cell membrane

The cell membrane (also known as the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane, and historically referred to as the plasmalemma) is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment (the extracellular space).
