This one helped me to understand how endotoxin relates to cells losing their structure. Basically, when endotoxin gets into contact with a cell, it excites the cell, causing the cell to take up water and calcium and produce nitric oxide. In this excited state, cells lose their structure and can take up and leak materials into the blood and surrounding area.
