Biochem/physiol Actions

5β-Pregnan-3α-ol-20-one or pregnanolone is a neurosteroid that acts as a positive allosteric modulator (PAMs) of γ-aminobutyric acid A receptors (GABAARs). It mediates anti-convulsive, anxiolytic and sedative effects. Pregnanolone inhibits γ-aminobutyric acid C receptor (GABAC) receptor-based response and favors GABAA receptor-mediated currents.

Allopregnanolone (3α5α-P), pregnanolone, and their synthetic derivatives are potent positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of GABAA receptors (GABAARs) with in vivo anesthetic, anxiolytic, and anti-convulsant effects. Mutational analysis, photoaffinity labeling, and structural studies have provided evidence for intersubunit and intrasubunit steroid-binding

Neurosteroids potentiate responses of the GABAA receptor to the endogenous agonist GABA. Here, we examined the ability of neurosteroids to potentiate responses to the allosteric activators etomidate, pentobarbital and propofol. Electrophysiological assays were conducted on rat α1β2γ2L GABAA receptors expressed

Hyperglycemia plays a critical role in the development of diabetic neuropathy. Hyperglycemia induces oxidative stress in neurons, resulting in neuronal cell apoptosis and dysfunction. Anti-apoptotic properties of neurosteroids have been demonstrated in numerous cellular models of neurodegenerative studies. Here, the

Neuroactive steroid concentrations are remarkably high in the foetal brain during late gestation. These concentrations are maintained by placental progesterone synthesis and the interaction of enzymes in the placenta and foetal brain. 5α-Pregnane-3α-ol-20-one (allopregnanolone) is a key neuroactive steroid during

Restorative/protective therapies to restore dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) are greatly needed to effectively change the debilitating course of Parkinson's disease. In this study, we tested the therapeutic potential of a neurogenic neurosteroid, allopregnanolone, in the
