Cells to Systems (BB4CTS)

The document provides a comprehensive overview of cell signalling, focusing on signal transduction and receptor tyrosine kinases. It covers various types of cellular communication such as contact-dependent, paracrine, synaptic, endocrine, and autocrine signalling. It details the role of receptors and ligands in initiating signaling cascades, including their specific mechanisms and types. The document also discusses the involvement of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and secondary messengers l...
