Definitions:

Surface Receptors

Proteins located on the cell membrane that bind to specific molecules in the cell's external environment, initiating a cellular response.

Second Messengers

Intracellular signaling molecules released by a cell in response to exposure to extracellular signaling molecules, amplifying the signal within the target cell.

Paracrine Regulation

Paracrine regulation involves the signaling of cells to nearby cells by releasing chemical messengers, influencing the behavior of those nearby cells without needing to enter the bloodstream.

Nearby Target Cells

Cells that are located close to the source of a signal molecule and are directly affected by it, often in the context of cellular communication.
