Many scientists use chemical inhibitors to interfere with normal signaling pathways within eukaryotic cells. If such inhibitors are large, nonpolar molecules, what is the likely method of action of these chemical inhibitors

Signalling pathway consists of series of reactions in which different molecules are involved to carry out certain important functions of the cells such as cell repair, cell death etc.

Explanation:

Chemical inhibitors that interfere with signalling pathways or blocks signals from one cell to another is known as signal pathways inhibitors. If the signalling pathway inhibitors are non polar and large, first of all they will not easily cross the cell membrane. These chemical inhibitors will then bind to receptors and inhibits the signal transduction. No only this, they will interfere with receptor activation also.
