| - | + | Intracrine refers to a hormone that acts inside a cell, regulating intracellular events. In simple terms it means that the cell stimulates itself by cellular production of a factor that acts within the cell. [[Steroid hormones]] act through intracellular (mostly nuclear) receptors and, thus, may be considered to be intracrines. | |

| - | + | There are several protein/peptide hormones that are also intracrines. Notable examples that have been described in the references include: | |
