Detailed explanation-1: -Three Stages of Cell Signaling First, reception, whereby the signal molecule binds the receptor. Then, signal transduction, which is where the chemical signal results in a series of enzyme activations. Finally, the response, which is the resulting cellular responses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Depending on the ligand’s origin (from the same cell, from the neighbour cell or from far distance), recptor-ligand interaction and signaling pathway activation is classified into four different types: autocrine, endocrine, paracrine and juxtacrine.
Detailed explanation-3: -Intracellular receptors To initiate signal transduction, the ligand must pass through the plasma membrane by passive diffusion. On binding with the receptor, the ligands pass through the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, altering gene expression.
