Intercellular interactions in which one cell sends a signal to another cell, inducing a change in function of the second cell, are common in morphogenesis, development, inflammation, and repair of the lung and other organs. In juxtacrine intercellular signaling, the molecule that induces the functional changes in the target cell remains associated with the plasma membrane of the signaling cell, rather than acting in the fluid phase. This feature distinguishes juxtacrine signaling from endocrine and paracrine stimulation and provides a mechanism for strict spatial control of activation of one cell by another. Juxtacrine signaling is likely to be common in physiologic events that require tight regulation, and disruption of juxtacrine signaling may lead to pathologic outcomes. Inthis minireview, general principles as well as several specific examples of juxtacrine signaling are discussed.Some molecules expressed by cells act by transmitting signals to other cells (1). Growth factors, chemotactic factors, and hormones are examples of signaling molecules. Singlecell organisms, such as certain strains of Pseudomonas, appear to interact via diffusible signaling molecules; this may contribute to their virulence (2). Multicellular organisms also produce such factors. The use of signaling molecules by biologic systems as diverse as populations of single bacteria and metazoan cells organized into complex tissues indicates that this property confers significant advantages. The traditional mechanisms by which a signaling molecule synthesized by one cell gets its message to a target cell or a group of target cells in mammalian tissues are well known to investigators and clinicians alike (3). In endocrine systems, the signaling factor is released from the cell of origin and is carried by the blood or another fluid to a distant site, where it binds to a signal-transducing receptor on the plasma membrane of the responding cell and. induces a change in its function. This is the classic mechanism of action of a protein or polypeptide hormone. Signaling molecules that are released into the fluid phase may also act on target cells over much shorter distances, in a local environment; this is termed a paracrine mechanism of intercellular interaction (3). Signaling molecules may act back on the cells of origin, an autocrine mechanism of cellular activation
