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.
1 An example of a hormone mediated cell signalling pathway is in the use of Insulin to lower blood glucose levels.2  In response to high glucose levels, Beta-Cells in the pancreas release the hormone Insulin in to the blood, which binds to cells such as muscle and liver cells. The signalling molecule binds to the Repeptor because its shape is complementary. 2  This then instigates a chain of reaction withing the cell, leading to a response. 3  Cell Signalling Pathways can be categorised based the distance over which the signalling occurs.
