Resumen:
Brain Neuroesteroidogenesis: new regulatory mechanisms of neuroendocrine functions associated with reproduction.Ricardo Cabrera Ph.D Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas (INBIOMED-IMBECU-CONICET) Universidad de Mendoza Neuroactive steroids and neurosteroids are steroidal molecules capable of regulating neuronal activity. Exert a potent modulatory effect at presynaptic and postsynaptic level on various receptors neurotransmitter systems such as GABA, acetylcholine, norepinephrine, serotonin, dopamine, glutamate and others. These modulatory effects determine the control of numerous physiological and pathophysiological functions of such behavioral, neuroendocrine and metabolic , related to the reproductive function in males and females.
