Growth Factors Paracrine Peptide Factors Paracrine Protein Factors Peptide Factors, Paracrine |
| Tree number(s): |
D12.644.276 D12.776.467 D23.529 |
| Scope note: | 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. |
| Annotation: | general or unspecified; prefer specifics; coordinate with PARACRINE COMMUNICATION if pertinent; INTRACELLULAR SIGNALING PEPTIDES AND PROTEINS is also available |
| Allowable Qualifiers: |
AD administration & dosage AE adverse effects AG agonists AN analysis BI biosynthesis BL blood CF cerebrospinal fluid CH chemistry CL classification CS chemical synthesis DF deficiency EC economics GE genetics HI history IM immunology IP isolation & purification ME metabolism PD pharmacology PH physiology PK pharmacokinetics PO poisoning RE radiation effects SD supply & distribution ST standards TO toxicity TU therapeutic use UR urine |
| History Note: | 2003; for GROWTH FACTORS use GROWTH SUBSTANCES 1999-2006 |
