Autocrine signaling is a form of cell communication where a cell secretes signaling molecules that bind to receptors on its own surface or neighboring cells of the same type, leading to a response. This process allows cells to regulate their own functions and coordinate activities with other similar cells, playing a crucial role in various physiological processes such as growth, development, and immune responses.
