research Abstract 14
A 15-year-old girl with rare reproductive disorders received hormone therapy to develop secondary sexual traits, but infertility persisted.
research Allopregnanolone promotes proliferation and differential gene expression in human glioblastoma cells
Allopregnanolone increases growth and changes gene activity in human brain cancer cells.
