Thank you CharonY for the answer. Actually, maybe I did not explain well my question. So, if I "injure" the cell membrane by some physical method used in gene therapy (like electroporation), some molecules are leaking out of cell due to the damaged/permabilized membrane. For example ATP is leaking out and body’s immune system recognizes damaged cell and eliminates it (or not?). Are there any other detectable molecules, that are leaking through damaged/permabilized membrane and that immune system recognizes them and eliminates the cell?

Hi everybody. I’m new here, so maybe this question has been asked before…if so, please point me to the answer. So, my question is: if cell in the body is injured (not by microbe, but physically injured-for example its membrane becomes damaged and cell’s molecules discharge out), the body’s immune system recognizes damaged cell and eliminate it. How the body’s immune system recognizes damaged cell-which molecules it recognizes? Liking ATP, any others? I hope I was clear enough Please help…I need this for my investigations.
