Definition
English
:
Regulatory
proteins
and
peptides
that are signaling molecules involved in the process of
PARACRINE COMMUNICATION
. They are generally considered factors that are expressed by one cell and are responded to by receptors on another nearby cell. They are distinguished from
HORMONES
in that their actions are local rather than distal.
