The transmission of a signal through the nervous system can also be considered an example of long-distance signaling. Local signaling in plants is not well understood. Because of their cell walls, plants must have different mechanisms from animals. Plants and animals use hormones for long-distance signaling. In animals, specialized endocrine cells release hormones into the circulatory system, by which they travel to target cells in other parts of the body. Plant hormones, called growth regulators, may travel in vessels but more often travel from cell to cell or move through air by diffusion.
Cytokines are important as well since they are molecules used for signaling, and this helps to coordinate the process of inflammation between body systems and cells. Learning Outcomes. When finishing this video lesson, you should be able to: Define inflammation ; Recognize the short-term consequences of inflammation ; Explain why cancer is a possible long-term consequence of long-term inflammation ; Describe the function of histamine and cytokines
