Question
What is the role of second messenger in protein hormone action?
✓

Answer

Hormones which do not enter the target cells, interact with specific receptors located on the surface of the target cell membranes and generates second messengers (e.g., cAMP) on the inner side of the plasma membrane. The second messenger, in turn, carries out all the hormonal functions.
