research Finasteride inhibits the disease-modifying activity of progesterone in the hippocampus kindling model of epileptogenesis
Finasteride worsens seizures in epilepsy rats and speeds up epileptogenesis in mice.
research Overexpression of the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) in the hippocampal dentate gyrus produced anxiolytic and antidepressant-like behavioural effects
Increasing TSPO in the brain reduces anxiety and depression.
research Reduced metabolites mediate neuroprotective effects of progesterone in the adult rat hippocampus. The synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (Provera) is not neuroprotective
Progesterone protects brain cells, but Provera does not.
research Changes in Expression and Function of Extrasynaptic GABAAReceptors in the Rat Hippocampus during Pregnancy and after Delivery
Pregnancy increases certain GABAA receptors in rat brains, influenced by steroid levels.
research GABAergic neurosteroids mediate the effects of ethanol on long‐term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices
Ethanol blocks memory formation in rats by enhancing certain brain chemicals.
research Allopregnanolone-mediated protective effects of progesterone on tributyltin-induced neuronal injury in rat hippocampal slices
Progesterone protects neurons from damage by converting to allopregnanolone, which works through GABAA receptors.
research Investigation of the mechanisms of progesterone protection following oxygen–glucose deprivation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
Progesterone protects brain cells by converting to allopregnanolone and involving GABAA receptors.
research Transcranial Red LED Therapy: A Promising Non-Invasive Treatment to Prevent Age-Related Hippocampal Memory Impairment
Red light therapy may help prevent memory loss as we age.
research Analysis of the finasteride treatment and its withdrawal in the rat hypothalamus and hippocampus at whole-transcriptome level
Finasteride treatment in rats changed the expression of genes related to psychiatric and neurological functions, and these changes persisted after stopping the drug.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Finasteride inhibits the disease-modifying activity of progesterone in the hippocampus kindling model of epileptogenesis.
research Ovarian Cycle‐Related Neurosteroid Regulation of GABA‐A Receptor Subunit Plasticity in the Hippocampus Subfields
Progesterone-derived neurosteroids affect GABA-A receptor expression, influencing epilepsy during menstrual cycles.
research Effects of sex steroid hormones and their metabolites on neuronal injury caused by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
Progesterone and testosterone protect brain cells from damage through specific pathways.
research Bisphenol-A antagonizes the rapidly modulating effect of DHT on spinogenesis and long-term potentiation of hippocampal neurons
Bisphenol-A (BPA) increases connections between brain cells and boosts their activity, but it blocks the effects of a male hormone on brain cell plasticity.
research 5. Novel anticonvulsant effects of supraphysiological doses of progesterone in hippocampal-kindled mice
High doses of progesterone can reduce seizures in mice.
research Treatment of male rats with finasteride, an inhibitor of 5alpha-reductase enzyme, induces long-lasting effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis, neuroinflammation and gut microbiota composition
Finasteride treatment in male rats causes long-lasting effects on depression-like behavior, brain cell growth, inflammation, and gut bacteria composition.
research Ginseng Extracts, GS-KG9 and GS-E3D, Prevent Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption and Thereby Inhibit Apoptotic Cell Death of Hippocampal Neurons in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
Ginseng extracts protect brain cells and reduce damage in diabetic rats.
research Inhibition of 5α Reductase Impairs Cognitive Performance, Alters Dendritic Morphology and Increases Tau Phosphorylation in the Hippocampus of Male 3xTg-AD Mice
Blocking 5α-reductase can harm memory and brain structure, and increase harmful brain changes in male mice used for Alzheimer's disease research.
research Inhibition of neurosteroid synthesis increases asphyxia-induced brain injury in the late gestation fetal sheep
Reducing neurosteroid levels worsens brain injury in fetal sheep.
research Progesterone promotes the survival of newborn neurons in the dentate gyrus of adult male mice
Progesterone helps adult male mice grow more neurons and improves memory.
research 3α-androstanediol, but not testosterone, attenuates age-related decrements in cognitive, anxiety, and depressive behavior of male rats
3α-androstanediol helps reduce age-related cognitive and mood declines in male rats, unlike testosterone.
research Dietary glucoraphanin prevents the onset of psychosis in the adult offspring after maternal immune activation
Eating glucoraphanin can help prevent psychosis in offspring whose mothers had immune system activation.
research Inhibition of 5α‐Reductase Activity in Late Pregnancy Decreases Gestational Length and Fecundity and Impairs Object Memory and Central Progestogen Milieu of Juvenile Rat Offspring
Inhibiting 5α-reductase during late pregnancy shortens gestation, reduces litter size, and harms memory in rat offspring.
research Alteration of neonatal Allopregnanolone levels affects exploration, anxiety, aversive learning and adult behavioural response to intrahippocampal neurosteroids
Changing Allopregnanolone levels in newborns affects adult behavior and anxiety.
research Finasteride-induced depression: new insights into possible pathomechanisms
