The neurosteroid allopregnanolone modulates specific functions in central and peripheral glial cells
Since the first observations on the existence of neurosteroids in the 1980’s, our understanding of the importance of these endogenous steroids in the control of the central and peripheral nervous system has increased progressively. Although most of the observations were made in neuronal cells, equal...
