Respuesta :

The hormone's signal is transduced through the cytoplasm of the target cell.

"Water-soluble hormones include glycoproteins, catecholamine's, and peptide hormones composed of polypeptides, e.g. thyroid-stimulating hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone and insulin. These molecules are not lipid-soluble and therefore cannot diffuse through cell membranes.
