Abstract: In vertebrates, steroids are synthesized de novo in the central and peripheral nervous system, independent of peripheral steroidogenic glands, such as the adrenal, gonads and placenta. 3β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Δ5-Δ4-isomerase (3β-HSD) is a key steroidogenic enzyme in… read more here.
