Resumen:
This review highlights the principal effects of steroid hormones at central and peripheral levels in the neuroendocrine axis. The data discussed here points out the principal role of estrogens and testosterone in hormonal programming in relation to sexual orientation, reproductive and metabolic programming, and in the neuroendocrine mechanism involved in development of polycystic ovary syndrome phenotype. Moreover, consistent with the wide range of processes in which steroid hormones take part, we discuss the protective effects of progesterone on neurodegenerative disease and the signaling mechanism involved in the genesis of estrogen-induced pituitary prolactinomas.
