The process whereby a neurotransmitter signal causes activation of a receptor. The process whereby an amino acid signal causes activation of a receptor. The process whereby an activated receptor conveys information down the signaling pathway, resulting in a change in the function or state of a cell. Any biological process involved in the generation, transmission, reception, or interpretation of a signal. A signal is an entity used to transmit or convey information. The process whereby a diffusible signal causes activation of a receptor. The process whereby a signal causes activation of a receptor, for example, via a conformation change. The process whereby a lipid signal causes activation of a receptor. The process whereby a chemical signal causes activation of a receptor. The process whereby a protein/peptide signal causes activation of a receptor.
