The physiological importance of neurosteroids is beginning to be understood. These steroids potentially have roles in sedative/hypnotic behavior, anxiety, learning, and memory. At the cellular level, neurosteroids affect neuronal excitability, synaptic plasticity and cell proliferation and survival. Early findings hold promise for future strategies to treat specific psychologicalconditions and neurological diseases. This Brief will focus on the current state of understanding of brainderived neurosteroids. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Neuroscience,$x2191-558X 606 $aNeuroendocrinology 606 $aSteroid hormones 606 $aNeurohormones 615 0$aNeuroendocrinology. 615 0$aSteroid hormones. 615 0$aNeurohormones. 676 $a612.8/042 700 $aKing$b Steven R$094041 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437845103321 996 $aNeurosteroids and the Nervous System$92502971 997 $aUNINA
