Peptide neuro - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

BOTH neural and endocrine cells respond to local and circulating stimuli, and transduce them into either an increased or decreased synthesis and release of a product which acts via a target membrane receptor to alter the behavior of neighboring or distant cells. An important cellular strategy for neuroendocrine stimulus-secretion transduction is that polypeptide hormones, factors and neurotransmitters are first synthesized as larger protein precursors which are stored in intracell...
