This occurs as a reaction to tissue damage, ref name urlCell Injury cite web url http library.med.utah.edu WebPath CINJHTML CINJ047.html title Cell Injury format work accessdate ref including as a consequence of medical device implantation. Dystrophic calcification can occur even if the amount of calcium in the blood is not elevated. A systemic mineral imbalance would elevate calcium levels in the blood and all tissues and cause metastatic calcification . Basophilic calcium salt deposits aggregate, first in the mitochondria, and progressively throughout the cell. These calcifications are an indication of previous microscopic cell injury. It occurs in areas of cell necrosis in which activated phosphatases bind calcium ions to phospholipids in the membrane. Calcification can occur in dead or degenerated tissue. Calcification in dead tissue Caseous necrosis in T.B. is most common site of dystrophic calcification. Liquefactive necrosis in chronic abscesses may get calcified. Fat necrosis following acute pancreatitis or traumatic fat necrosis in breasts results in deposition of calcium soaps. Infarct s may undergo D.C. Thrombus Thrombi , especially in veins, may produce phlebolith is. Haematoma s in the vicinity of bones may undergo D.C. Dead parasites like schistosoma eggs may calcify. Congenital toxoplasmosis or rubella may be seen on X ray as calcifications in the brain. Calcification in degenerated tissue Dense scars may undergo hyaline degeneration and calcification.

Their lipid bilayer membrane s are 6 nm thick and contain a number of protein pump s and antiporter s, including aquaporin s, ATPase s and Calcium Ca sup 2 sup Hydrogen H sup sup and Sodium Na sup sup Hydrogen H sup sup antiporters. They may be the only cellular organelle that has been conserved between prokaryotic and eukaryotic organism s. They behave differently in different organisms and therefore it may be possible to design drugs that target acidocalcisomes in parasitism parasites but not those in the host. ref cite journal author Docampo R, de Souza W, Miranda K, Rohloff P, Moreno SNJ title Acidocalcisomes?
