Cell Signaling by Chemical Messengers — Marks' Basic Medical Biochemistry: A Clinical Approach▶ 5:29If a messenger is hydrophobic, meaning it's fat loving, it can easily slip right through the cell's fatty outer membrane, the plasma…These types of messengers bind to intracellular receptors, which are found floating around inside the cell cytoplasm, or maybe in the nucleusSteroid hormones, like cortisol, work this wayOrganization of Endocrine Control — Medical Physiology: A Cellular And Molecular Approaoch▶ 27:11They're synthesized uniquely within thyroid folliclesThey also readily enter target cells and bind to intracellular receptors, mostly in the nucleus, although some binding occurs in the cytosol…T3 is generally considered the more active form at the receptor levelMolecules and Cells in Animal Physiology — Animal Physiology▶ 24:55and enzyme -linked receptors,and intracellular receptorsOkay, let's break those down
