Pregnenolone sulfate potentiates the inwardly rectifying K channel Kir2.3.
BACKGROUND:Neurosteroids have various physiological and neuropsychopharmacological effects. In addition to the genomic effects of steroids, some neurosteroids modulate several neurotransmitter receptors and channels, such as N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) re...
