research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Effects of Restraint Stress and Allopregnanolone Inhibition on Amphetamine Locomotor Sensitivity
Targeting neurosteroids may help prevent drug relapse.
research Elisabeth & Antonio: Hotel Las Arenas Wedding
Neuropeptides affect hair growth and could be used to control it.
research Divergent neuroactive steroid responses to stress and ethanol in rat and mouse strains: relevance for human studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Role of neurosteroids in ischemic postconditioning-induced attenuation of cerebral ischemia-evoked neuronal injury and behavioral deficits in mice
Neurosteroids help protect the brain and improve behavior after a stroke in mice.
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 Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research The Plastic and Functional Changes in Hippocampal Neurons During Pregnancy, Delivery and Postpartum are Reversed by Offspring Deprivation
Pregnancy and nursing increase certain brain activities in rats, but these changes disappear when the babies are taken away.
research Neuroactive steroid levels and psychiatric and andrological features in post-finasteride patients
Post-finasteride patients show changed neuroactive steroid levels, possibly causing erectile dysfunction and depression.
research Can you Create Low Molecular Weight Pharmacologically Active Substances and Maintain Mental Function Normal? Yes, we Can
New substances were created that improve health and may treat dementia, osteoporosis, and cancer.
research Slowly Does It
Special astrocytes improved learning and memory in rats after a stroke.
research Neuroactive steroids inhibit spinal reflex potentiation by selectively enhancing specific spinal GABAA receptor subtypes
Progesterone reduces spinal reflex activity by increasing certain GABA(A) receptor subtypes.
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 Involvement of neurosteroids in the anxiolytic-like effects of AC-5216 in mice
AC-5216 reduces anxiety in mice through neurosteroids affecting GABAA receptors.
research Neurosteroids on the Epilepsy Chessboard—Keeping Seizures in Check
Ketogenic diet, neurosteroids, and HMGB1-TLR4 signaling pathway are potential targets for new epilepsy treatments.
research Glia-derived steroids modulate epileptogenesis in a model of temporal lobe epilepsy
Neurosteroids from glia cells help control seizure development in epilepsy.
research Synaptic‐like vesicles and candidate transduction channels in mechanosensory terminals
SLVs help maintain muscle stretch sensitivity and could aid in treating hypertension and muscle spasticity.
research Toxic and Metabolic Disorders of the Nervous System
Certain vitamins in wrong amounts, alcohol abuse, metals, and other toxins can cause serious brain and nerve damage.
research Proteomic Analysis to Identify Prospective Biomarkers of Treatment Outcome After Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia: A Preliminary Study
Certain proteins might predict surgical success in trigeminal neuralgia treatment.
research [Neurosteroidogenesis and exploratory responses in rodents].
Certain substances can decrease or increase exploratory behavior in rodents.
research Regulation of itch-induced scratching by nucleus accumbens dopamine receptor-expressing neurons
Dopamine receptors in the brain influence itch-related scratching behavior.
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 Neuroendocrine Determinants of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Certain brain hormones and chemicals are linked to the development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Four Closure
Certain astrocytes can protect the brain and improve recovery after a stroke, and a hair loss drug might reduce cancer spread.
research A microscopy-based small molecule screen in primary neurons reveals neuroprotective properties of the FDA-approved anti-viral drug Elvitegravir
The anti-viral drug Elvitegravir may protect brain cells from damage related to neurodegenerative diseases.
research Mitochondrial dysfunction in an animal model of diabetic neuropathy is associated with a reduction of neurosteroid synthesis.
Diabetic neuropathy in mice is linked to poor mitochondria function and lower brain hormone production.
research Modulation of neuropeptide Y and Y1 receptor expression in the amygdala by fluctuations in the brain content of neuroactive steroids during ethanol drinking discontinuation in Y1R/LacZ transgenic mice
Stopping alcohol after long-term use causes anxiety and changes brain chemicals.
