- Second messenger system [r]: Systems in which an intracellular signal is generated in response to an intercellular primary messenger such as a hormone or neurotransmitter. [e]
- Ion channel [r]: Gated, ion-selective glycoproteins that traverse membranes. The stimulus for channel gating can be a membrane potential, drug, transmitter, cytoplasmic messenger, or a mechanical deformation. [e]
- Cytokines [r]: The chemical messengers of the immune system, primarily but not exclusively carried in blood [e]
- Hypersensitivity [r]: In medicine, an altered reactivity to an antigen, which can result in pathologic reactions upon subsequent exposure to that particular antigen. [e]
- Second messenger system [r]: Systems in which an intracellular signal is generated in response to an intercellular primary messenger such as a hormone or neurotransmitter. [e]
- Protein kinase [r]: A family of enzymes that catalyze the conversion of adenosine triphosphate and a protein to adenosine diphosphate and a phosphoprotein. [e]
- Cyclic AMP [r]: An adenine nucleotide that is a second messenger and a key intracellular regulator, functioning as a mediator of activity for a number of hormones, including epinephrine, glucagon, and ACTH. [e]
