Cellular Miscommunication

Meaning

Cellular miscommunication is a pathological state characterized by errors or failures in the signaling pathways between cells, within a cell, or between a cell and its extracellular matrix. This breakdown can involve faulty hormone-receptor binding, aberrant signal transduction cascades, or inappropriate cytokine release. It is a fundamental driver of many age-related diseases and a precursor to tissue dysfunction and loss of endocrine control.
