About this document
Understanding Chemical Signaling by 43660 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Chemical signaling is the process by which cells communicate using molecules called signals. These signals, such as hormones, neurotransmitters, or local mediators, bind to specific receptors on target cells. This binding triggers a response inside the target cell, leading to various physiological effects. For example, hormones can regulate growth and metabolism, while neurotransmitters transmit nerve impulses.
