Scope note: Proteínas no anticuerpos segregadas por los leucocitos inflamatorios y algunas células no leucocíticas, que actúan como mediadores intercelulares. Difieren de las hormonas clásicas por ser producidas por numerosos tipos tisulares o celulares en vez de por glándulas especializadas. Por lo general actúan localmente de modo paracrino o autocrino más que endocrino.

Scope note: Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner.
