Main Topics:
Can you define signal transduction pathways and how they function?
Can you explain what disruptions can occur to interfere with signal transduction pathways, and what the consequences are of this disruption?
Can you explain three ways that cells communicate (contact dependent, paracrine signaling, endocrine signaling)?
Can you compare and contrast protein and steroid signals in a communication pathway?
Do you know the three types of cell signaling pathways?
