1.3 CELLULAR COMMUNICATION Flashcards
ENDOCRINE SIGNALING
DEPENDS ON HORMONES CARRIED IN BLOOD STREAM TO ACT ON CELLS THROUGHOUT BODY
PARACRINE SIGNALING
OCCURS WHEN ENZYMES METABOLIZE CHEMICAL MEDIATORS PRODUCING A CHANGE IN NEIGHBORING CELLS
AUTOCRINE SIGNALING
OCCURS WHEN CELLS RELEASE A CHEMICAL INTO EXTRACELLULAR FLUID THAT EFFECTS ACTIVITY
SYNAPTIC SIGNALING
OCCURRING IN NERVOUS SYSTEM AS NEUROTRANSMITTERS THROUGH SYNAPS
ION CHANEL LINKED RECEPTORS
FOUND IN NERVE CELLS AND MUSCLE CELLS
CHANLE OPENS TO ALLOW IONS TO FLOW TO NEURON
G PROTEIN LINKED RECEPTORS
HAVE A LIGAND BINDING EXTRACELLULAR RECEPTOR
WHEN ACTIVE, HIGH AFFINITY FOR GTP
WHEN INACTIVE, BINDS TO GDP
INTRACELLULAR RECEPTORS
ACTIVATED BY HORMONES BY MOVING ACROSS MEMBRANE
