930-960 / 1000+ resultsresearch Hormone-dependent medial preoptic/lumbar spinal cord/autonomic coordination supporting male sexual behaviors
Testosterone and its byproducts help support male sexual behavior through different pathways in the brain and body.
research The relationship between psychological distress and neurotrophins in patients with alopecia areata: A crosssectional study
Alopecia areata patients experience more psychological distress, linked to certain neurotrophin levels.
research Rapid nongenomic modulation by neurosteroids of dendritic spines in the hippocampus: Androgen, oestrogen and corticosteroid
Sex and stress steroids quickly change brain cell structures in the hippocampus.
research Overexpression of neurotrophin 4 in skin enhances myelinated sensory endings but does not influence sensory neuron number
Increasing neurotrophin 4 in skin boosts nerve endings but not sensory neuron count.
research Association of iron levels in hair with brain structures and functions in young adults
Higher hair iron levels are linked to changes in brain structure and function.
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 Sex steroid levels in corresponding cerebrospinal fluid and serum samples quantified by mass spectrometry in men
DHEA is the main sex steroid in cerebrospinal fluid, and testosterone in the fluid comes from the blood.
research Age‐dependent regulation by androgens of gene expression in the anterior hypothalamus and stress‐induced release of adrenal hormones in adolescent and adult male rats
Testosterone affects stress hormone levels differently in adolescent and adult male rats.
research Differential Gene Expression in Post-Finasteride Syndrome Patients
Gene expression differences in PFS patients suggest a potential organic cause for symptoms.
research Hedonic sensitivity to natural rewards is affected by prenatal stress in a sex-dependent manner
Prenatal stress changes how male and female rats enjoy rewards differently, linked to sex hormones.
research Empathic disequilibrium is related to lower levels of hair oxytocin in humans
research Effects of Restraint Stress and Allopregnanolone Inhibition on Amphetamine Locomotor Sensitivity
Targeting neurosteroids may help prevent drug relapse.
research Correlation between serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor level and depression severity in alopecia areata patients
Lower BDNF levels link to worse depression in alopecia areata patients.
research Neurosteroids Involved in Regulating Inhibition in the Inferior Colliculus
Neurosteroids help balance brain signals when certain inhibitions are reduced.
research Determinants of Plasma Androgen and Estrogen Levels in Men
Understanding testosterone and estradiol levels is crucial for identifying normal and abnormal hormone levels in men, especially as they age.
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 The neurosteroidogenic enzyme 5α-reductase modulates the role of D1 dopamine receptors in rat sensorimotor gating
5α-reductase affects dopamine receptors linked to sensorimotor gating, which may help understand disorders like schizophrenia.
research Changes in expression of the δ subunit of the GABAAreceptor and in receptor function induced by progesterone exposure and withdrawal
Progesterone affects GABAA receptor function by altering δ subunit levels.
research Cortisol levels in atypical and non-atypical depression using hair and saliva specimens
research TTNPB Promotes Human Pluripotent Stem Cell‐to‐Neural Stem Cell Transition via Modulation of Chromatin Accessibility and the S‐(5′‐adenosyl)‐L‐homocysteine/Choline Metabolic Network
TTNPB helps turn stem cells into neural stem cells, improving depression-like behaviors in rats.
research The effects of acute finasteride treatment in dopamine transporter knockout mice and MK-801-treated mice
research Effect of Neurosteroid Withdrawal on Hippocampal GABA‐A Receptor α4‐Subunit Expression in Female Mice
Neurosteroid withdrawal increases α4 subunit expression in the hippocampus, which may relate to catamenial epilepsy in women.
research Sexual dimorphism following in vitro ischemia in the response to neurosteroids and mechanisms of injury
Male tissue has more cell death than female tissue after ischemia, and some neurosteroids only protect female cells.
research Neuronal plasticity of the “brain–skin connection”: stress-triggered up-regulation of neuropeptides in dorsal root ganglia and skin via nerve growth factor-dependent pathways
Stress increases certain chemicals in the skin and nerves, which might worsen skin conditions.
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 Allopregnanolone mediates the exacerbation of Tourette-like responses by acute stress in mouse models
Stress worsens Tourette symptoms by increasing allopregnanolone levels.
research Neurosteroids as Endogenous Regulators of Seizure Susceptibility
Stress increases neurosteroids that help prevent seizures.
