Overview Signal transduction Signal transduction and cancer Signal transduction inhibitors (STIs) Multi-signal transduction regulators (STRs) Phenoxodiol		Signal transduction Signal transduction refers to the processes within a cell that allow each cell to make critical decisions such as whether to remain alive or to die (apoptosis) to multiply or not to remain in position or to migrate elsewhere. Cells make these decisions based on chemical signals that are constantly bombarding the cell. These signals need ultimately to reach the cell's DNA (nucleus) where the signal is finally decoded and the decision made. The process of transmitting the signal from the surface of the cell to the DNA is known as signal transduction. Signal transduction is a relay process involving one protein passing the message to another type of protein. There can be up to several dozen different relay runners (or checkpoints) for each of the thousands of different signals entering the cell.
