Central nervous system cell-signaling gene

Three phases of receptor-mediated signaling can be identified 178 Four distinct molecular mechanisms that link agonist occupancy of cell-surface receptors to functional responses have been identified 178 Cross-talk can occur between intracellular signaling pathways 179 Signaling molecules can activate gene transcription 181 Nitric oxide acts as an intercellular signaling molecule in the central nervous system 181...
