Neurosteroids are a class of steroids that are synthesized in the brain and play a crucial role in regulating various neuronal functions. These compounds can modulate the activity of neurotransmitter receptors, influence neurogenesis, and regulate synaptic plasticity. Neurosteroids have been implicated in a range of neurological conditions, including anxiety, depression, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative diseases. Research in this area aims to understand the mechanisms by which neurosteroids impact brain function and to develop new therapeutic strategies for treating neurological disorders.
