The two isomers, either directly or after being further metabolized, have been suggested to be involved in a variety of human physiological and pathological reactions. Unlike hormones which are secreted by cells, travel in the circulation to alter the behavior of distant cells, and thereby act as Endocrine signalling agents, these arachidonic acid metabolites act locally as Autocrine signalling agents to regulate the behavior of their cells of origin or as Paracrine signalling agents to regulate the function of nearby cells. In these roles, they may amplify or dampen, expand or contract cellular and tissue responses to disturbances."@en }
