Dehydroepiandrosterone, its sulfate (DHEAS) and pregnenolone sulfate, representative neurosteroids as well as (+)-pentazocine concentration-dependently stimulated the [35S]GTPgammaS binding in synaptic membranes of mouse prefrontal cortex. These stimulations were blocked by NE-100, a sigma-receptor antagonist, and by progesterone, another type of neurosteroid. The DHEAS-induced stimulation was blocked by the pertussis toxin (PTX)-treatment, and completely recovered by reconstitution of PTX-treated membranes with recombinant G(i1), but not with G(oA). DHEAS also stimulated the [35S]GTPgammaS binding in the coronal sections of mouse brain in NE-100- or progesterone-reversible manner. These findings suggest that some neurosteroids may act on metabotropic sigma receptors, and this study may be the first to show the coupling of neurosteroid binding site and G(i).

D011374 Progesterone The major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production. Progesterone, converted from PREGNENOLONE, also serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of GONADAL STEROID HORMONES and adrenal CORTICOSTEROIDS.
