Multicellular organisms need cell signaling to regulate different functions. ▪ In plants and animals, signaling between cells occurs either through release into the extracellular space. Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Forms of Cell Signaling Autocrine: Autocrine signaling involves a cell secreting a hormone or chemical messenger (called the autocrine agent) that binds to autocrine receptors on that same cell, leading to changes in the cell itself. This can be contrasted with paracrine signaling, intracrine signaling, or classical endocrine signaling. Intracrine: In intracrine signaling, the signaling chemicals are produced inside the cell and bind to cytosolic or nuclear receptors without being secreted from the cell. In intracrine signaling, signals are relayed without being secreted from the cell. The intracrine signals not being secreted outside of the cell is what sets apart intracrine signaling from the other cell signaling mechanisms such as autocrine signaling. In both autocrine and intracrine signaling, the signal has an effect on the cell that produced it. Juxtacrine: Juxtacrine signaling is a type of cell–cell or cell–extracellular matrix signaling in multicellular organisms that requires close contact. Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Forms of Cell Signaling Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Forms of Cell Signaling Paracrine: In paracrine signaling, a cell produces a signal to induce changes in nearby cells, altering the behavior of those cells. Signaling molecules known as paracrine factors diffuse over a relatively short distance (local action), as opposed to cell signaling by endocrine factors, hormones which travel considerably longer distances via the circulatory system; juxtacrine interactions; and autocrine signaling. Endocrine: Endocrine signals are called hormones. Hormones are produced by endocrine cells and they travel through the blood to reach all parts of the body. Specificity of signaling can be controlled if only some cells can respond to a particular hormone. Endocrine signaling involves the release of hormones by internal glands of an organism directly into the circulatory system, regulating distant target organs. Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Forms of Cell Signaling Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Forms of Cell Signaling Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Forms of Cell Signaling Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Cell signaling can be divided into 3 stages: 1. : A cell detects a signaling molecule from the outside of the cell. A signal is detected when the chemical signal (also known as a ligand) binds to a receptor protein on the surface of the cell or inside the cell. 2. : When the signaling molecule binds the receptor it changes the receptor protein in some way. This change initiates the process of transduction. Signal transduction is usually a pathway of several steps. Each relay molecule in the signal transduction pathway changes the next molecule in the pathway. 3. : Finally, the signal triggers a specific cellular response. Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Ligands and Receptors ▪ Chemical signals are released by signaling cells in the form of small, usually volatile or soluble molecules called ligands. ▪ A ligand is a molecule that binds another specific molecule, in some cases, delivering a signal in the process. ▪ Ligands can thus be thought of as signaling molecules. Ligands interact with proteins in target cells, which are cells that are affected by chemical signals; these proteins are called receptors. Ligands and receptors exist in several varieties; however, a specific ligand will have a specific receptor that typically binds only that ligand. Cell Signaling and Cell Communication Ligands and Receptors FUNCTIONAL CATEGORIES OF CELL STRUCTURES ▪ It is possible to group cell organelles into four categories based on general functions of organelles – In each category structure is correlated with function Eukaryotic cell structures and functions 1.
