Regulation of neurosteroid biosynthesis by neurotransmitters and neuropeptides

Regulation of neurosteroid biosynthesis by neurotransmitters and neuropeptides

The enzymatic pathways leading to the synthesis of bioactive steroids in the brain are now almost completely elucidated in various groups of vertebrates and, during the last decade, the neuronal mechanisms involved in the regulation of neurosteroid production have received increasing attention. This...
