| Exact synonym | paracrine signalling |
| Description | The transfer of information from one cell to another, where the signal travels from the signal-producing cell to the receiving cell by passive diffusion or bulk flow in intercellular fluid. The signaling cell and the receiving cell are usually in the vicinity of each other. |
| Comment | This term should be used with caution, and only used when the signaling between cells has been clearly distinguished from endocrine signaling. |
