TITLE=Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein Expression in the Central Nervous System JOURNAL=Frontiers in Endocrinology VOLUME=2 YEAR=2011 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/endocrinology/articles/10.3389/fendo.2011.00072 DOI=10.3389/fendo.2011.00072 ISSN=1664-2392 ABSTRACT=

Locally produced neurosteroids are proposed to have many functions in the central nervous system. The identification of the steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in steroid-producing neural cells provides a new tool to understand the sites, regulation, and importance of their synthesis.
