Abstract
Understanding the potential biological ramifications associated with altered cellular signal transduction processes is essential for research, development, testing, and evaluation of new chemical compounds for both pharmacology and toxicology. Beyond sensory perception systems that are highly innervated with direct linkages to the central nervous system, all biological interactions with the exogenous world necessitate a cellular understanding of signal transduction. This involves both extracellular and intracellular trafficking of information, which requires dynamic interplay between the plasma membrane, organelles, and cellular constituents in order to optimize the response to a changing environment. While every cellular constituent plays a role within signal transduction, some organelles are critical for both the creation and maintenance of signaling capabilities, including the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and the nucleus. Beyond their well-known functional responsibilities, these organelles also serve to integrate many disparate signals that originate from both the extracellular matrix and the cytoplasm.
