Can you list brief differences between paracrine, autocrine, neural, exocrine, and endocrine signaling?
Paracrine signalling
It is form of signalling which keep cell to cell communication in which a cell produces signal to induce changes in the nearby cells and altering examples include growth factors and clotting factors have paracrine signalling.
Autocrine signalling
Autocrine signalling is a form of signalling in which cell secretes chemical messenger or hormone that acts upon the auto receptors of the same cell and changes takes place.Examples include interleukin 1 in monocytes.
Neural signalling
Signalling between neurons is neural signalling . synapses permit neural signalling.Electrochemical signals that generates an electric potential that throughout the entire cell.
Exocrine signalling
In exocrine signalling , signalling occurs when the cells secrete signalling molecules into the blood.Example includes the signalling molecules released from brain stimulates on ovaries in female and on testis in male.
Endocrine signalling
In this the signalling molecules are hormones,which are secreted by specialized cells called endocrine cell and the secreted substances are released into the circulation and it reaches the target cells respective action occurs.
