  • hydrophilic signal molecules include neurotransmitters, growth factors, and cytokines. They cannot pass through the double lipid layer of the plasma membrane of the target cell, they can only bind to specific receptors on the cell surface, and through signal transduction mechanisms, they produce a second messenger-activated protein kinase and protein-proteinase activity in the cell. The second messenger quickly changed the activity of the enzyme in the target cell or the activity of the non-enzyme protein, causing the cell to respond to external signals.
  • the cytokine receptor is a superfamily of transmembrane proteins. The structures outside their membranes have two barrel-shaped structures formed by seven bundled structures. Cytokine receptors mediate many non-tyrosine protein kinase receptor signaling, including growth hormone, prolactin, many growth factors of the hematopoietic system and their interferons, etc. Therefore, cytokine receptors are involved in a variety of cell physiology. Activities play important regulatory roles, such as regulating cell proliferation, regulating cell differentiation, immunity, and development during hematopoietic effects. For example: The cytokine receptor cM P l plays an important role in stimulating megakaryocyte development and platelet formation. [Current Opinion in Hematology 1995, 2: 22-28.]
