Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hydrocortisones are not classified as eicosanoids, as they are a type of steroid hormone produced by the adrenal cortex. Eicosanoids are local signaling molecules that include leukotrienes, prostaglandins, and thromboxanes, but not hydrocortisones. Paracrines, on the other hand, are a general term for signaling molecules that act locally within a tissue and can include eicosanoids.
