As steroids from the periphery have profound effects on the nervous system, the nervous system also produces its own steroids de novo (“neurosteroids”). 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
Neurosteroids can alter neuronal excitability very rapidly by binding to receptors for inhibitory or excitatory neurotransmitters at the cell membrane. Neurosteroid actions at inhibitory -amino-butyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors are the most extensively characterized to date, but neurosteroid activity has also been demonstrated at excitatory glutamatergic (N-methyl-D-aspartate [NMDA], -amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazoleproprionic acid [AMPA], kainate), 5-HT3, glycine, sigma type 1 and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Neurosteroid actions at GABAA receptors can occur at low nanomolar physiologic concentrations, while neurosteroid activity at other receptor types frequently requires higher concentrations of 1.0 x 10-7 M or greater. In addition to the characterization of neurosteroid actions at membrane-bound ligand-gated ion channel receptors, in the last decade it has also been established with certainty that enzymes leading to neurosteroid biosynthesis are present in glia and neurons in the brain. In other words, the enzymatic biosynthetic machinery facilitating steroid formation from cholesterol in peripheral endocrine organs (such as the adrenals, ovaries and testes) is also present in the brain.
OMICS Group International is an amalgamation of Open Access publications and worldwide international science conferences and events. Established in the year 2007 with the sole aim of making the information on Sciences and technology ‘Open Access’, ConferenceSeries publishes 700+ online open access scholarly journals in all aspects of Science, Engineering, Management and Technology journals. OMICS International is an innovative scientific facilitator which has organised 1000+ global events consisting of 500+ Conferences with well-organized scientific symposium, workshop, poster presentations and world class exhibitions events inviting the renowned speakers and scientists across the globe.
Scope and Importance:
Neurosteroids conference will provide the scope for opportunities to learn progressed by international scientists and academicians. The conference will consist of plenary talks, invited talks, panel discussions, poster presentations and exhibitions, thus providing a unique opportunity for communication and collaboration between academia, industry and planners in the areas of health Science. This will be equally informative for participants who attend this meeting as well as a for key opinion leaders who want to brush up on their knowledge in/outside their own area of specialization.
