This graphic illustrates paracrine adhesion signaling on small extracellular vesicles, which secretes a protein called galectin-3, which promotes endocytosis so the vesicle can be absorbed into ...

leading us to hypothesize that these normal parasites release helpful supporting molecules—an effect known as paracrine ...

That suggests the androgen-sensitive cells then communicate to neighbors through paracrine signaling, inducing changes across the whole tissue, say the researchers. The work characterizes the ...

In addition, we study the paracrine signaling interactions between cardiac fibroblasts and myocytes, and their role in profibrotic signaling. New therapies in development include small molecule ...
