research Synthesis of mimics of steroid A ring as potential enzyme inhibitors
Mimicking the steroid A-ring may help create effective enzyme inhibitors for prostate disease treatment.
research Steroid Hormones
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
research Witnessed trauma exposure induces fear in mice through a reduction in endogenous neurosteroid synthesis
Seeing trauma causes fear in mice by lowering their natural fear-reducing hormones.
research Use of trilostane for the treatment of pituitary‐dependent hyperadrenocorticism in a cat
