Synonyms: | second messenger mediated signaling, second messenger mediated signalling, second messenger-mediated signaling, second messenger-mediated signalling, second-messenger-mediated signal transduction, second-messenger-mediated signalling |
Definition: | OBSOLETE. Any intracellular signal transduction in which the signal is passed on within the cell via a second messenger; a small molecule or ion that can be quickly generated or released from intracellular stores, and can diffuse within the cell. Second-messenger signaling includes production or release of the second messenger, and effectors downstream of the second messenger that further transmit the signal within the cell. |
