Abstract:Cells are the fundamental units that constitute living organisms, and they can die due to aging or damage. Cell death can be classified into various types based on its morphology, including apoptosis, necroptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, extracellular trappings, autophagy and cuproptosis. In clinical practice, acute lung injury (ALI) often occurs in critical cases and is frequently accompanied by the activation and death of immune cells. Neutrophils as one of the most important effector cells in the development process of ALI, play a significant role in responding to the pathophysiological process of ALI. This article employs bioinformatics methods to gain a deeper understanding of the mode of neutrophils death and its pathological significance in the development, providing references for preventing its further progression into acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
