690-720 / 1000+ resultsresearch Role of allopregnanolone biosynthesis in acute stress-induced anxiety-like behaviors in mice
Blocking allopregnanolone production in mice makes them more anxious after stress, but this can be reversed with a drug that mimics allopregnanolone.

A natural steroid in the body may protect against eye damage in glaucoma.
research 5‐α reductase inhibitors and the risk of anaemia among men with benign prostatic hyperplasia: A population‐based cohort study
5α-reductase inhibitors do not increase anaemia risk compared to α-blockers in men with BPH.
research 2-Substituted 4-(Thio)chromenone 6-O-Sulfamates: Potent Inhibitors of Human Steroid Sulfatase
New compounds were made that block an enzyme linked to breast cancer better than existing treatments.
research Cortisol Enhances the Expression of mac25/Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-Related Protein-1 in Cultured Osteoblasts**This work was supported by NIDDK Grant DK-45227 and a scholarship (to R.C.P.) from Fundacao Coordenacao de Aperfeicoa mento de Pessoal de Nivel Superior (CAPES), Universidade de Sao Paulo (Sao Paulo, Brazil).
Cortisol increases a specific protein in bone cells, which may help explain its negative effects on bone.
