Paracrine Modulation of Immune Response

Molecular classification: Cell-cell communication mechanism, Signaling pathway

Overview

Paracrine modulation of the immune response refers to the regulation of immune cell activity through paracrine signaling—where cells secrete signaling molecules that act on nearby target cells within the same tissue, rather than on themselves (autocrine) or distant cells (endocrine). This localized communication is essential for coordinating immune responses, maintaining tissue homeostasis, and responding to injury or infection. Key molecules include cytokines, chemokines, growth factors and lipid mediators. Dysregulation can contribute to chronic inflammation or impaired immunity during aging.
