DOI: 10.1016/j.alcohol.2016.07.011

Abstract: Neuroactive steroids modulate alcohol's impact on brain function and behavior. Ethanol exposure alters neuroactive steroid levels in rats, humans, and some mouse strains. We conducted an exploratory analysis of the neuroactive steroids (3α,5α)-3-hydroxypregnan-20-one (3α,5α-THP), (3α,5α)-3,21-dihydroxypregnan-20-one… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.7b00846

Abstract: Certain classes of neuroactive steroids (NASs) are positive allosteric modulators (PAM) of synaptic and extrasynaptic GABAA receptors. Herein, we report new SAR insights in a series of 5β-nor-19-pregnan-20-one analogues bearing substituted pyrazoles and triazoles at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1210/endocr/bqac183

Abstract: Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of disability and death and aging is the main non-modifiable risk factor. Following ischemia, neuroactive steroids have been shown to play a key role in cerebroprotection. Thus, brain steroid… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.3389/fnmol.2022.817996

Abstract: Neuroactive steroids (NASs) have potent anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, sedative, and hypnotic actions, that reflect in part their efficacy as GABAAR positive allosteric modulators (PAM). In addition to this, NAS exert metabotropic effects on GABAergic inhibition via… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Biomolecules"

DOI: 10.3390/biom11040553

Abstract: Neuroactive steroids are a family of all steroid-based compounds, of both natural and synthetic origin, which can affect the nervous system functions. Their biosynthesis occurs directly in the nervous system (so-called neurosteroids) or in peripheral… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Biomolecules"

DOI: 10.3390/biom11071026

Abstract: Evidence from clinical and preclinical studies implicates dysfunction of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) in schizophrenia progression and symptoms. We investigated the antipsychotic effect of two neuroactive steroids in an animal model of schizophrenia induced by systemic… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232113075

Abstract: Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are membrane receptors involved in many physiological processes. Malfunction of muscarinic signaling is a cause of various internal diseases, as well as psychiatric and neurologic conditions. Cholesterol, neurosteroids, neuroactive steroids, and steroid… read more here.
