An Introduction to Hormones Hormones that are circulated in the blood come in contact with a number of cells. However, they only influence certain target cells. Target cells have specific receptors for a specific hormone. Target cell receptors can be located on the surface of the cell membrane or inside of the cell. When a hormone binds to a receptor, it causes changes within the cell that influence cellular function. This type of hormone signaling is described as endocrine signaling because the hormones influence target cells over a distance.
