Target intelligence / Profile preview

Chemoreceptor Cell

Molecular classification: Receptor, Sensory Receptor

Overview

Specialized sensory cells that detect chemical substances and relay information to the nervous system. They monitor both external stimuli, such as taste and smell, and internal stimuli, like the concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. Chemoreceptors play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis by detecting chemical changes and triggering appropriate physiological responses, such as regulating breathing.

Mechanism of action

Ligand binding leading to action potential and neurotransmitter release

Biological functions

Sensory transductionHomeostasis regulationRespiratory regulationChemotaxis

Disease associations
