Biology:Humoral factor
From HandWiki
Short description: Factors that are transported by the circulatory system
Humoral factors are factors that are transported by the circulatory system, that is, in blood, and include:
- Humoral immunity factors in the immune system
- Hormones in the endocrine system
Humoral immunity factors act primarily locally and produce inflammation.[1] Examples of these include prostaglandins and histamine.[1] Hormones act more broadly and include homoral factors such as adrenaline and vasopressin.[1]
