What (who) is autocrine - definition
SIGNALING METHOD BETWEEN CELLS OF THE SAME TYPE
Autocrine agent; Autocrine; Autocrine agents; Autocrine hypothesis; Autocrine loop; Autocrine signalling; Autocrine communication
autocrine
['?:t??kr??n]
¦ adjective Biochemistry denoting or relating to a cell-produced substance that has an effect on the cell by which it is secreted.
Origin
1980s: from auto-1 + Gk krinein 'to separate'.
Autocrine signaling
Autocrine signaling is a form of cell signaling in which a cell secretes a hormone or chemical messenger (called the autocrine agent) that binds to autocrine receptors on that same cell, leading to changes in the cell. This can be contrasted with paracrine signaling, intracrine signaling, or classical endocrine signaling.

Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI), alternatively known as phosphoglucose isomerase/phosphoglucoisomerase (PGI) or phosphohexose isomerase (PHI), is an enzyme ( ) that in humans is encoded by the GPI gene on chromosome 19.
