Abstract

The term neurosteroid was coined by Baulieu and colleagues in Paris towards the end of the last century to describe steroids which are synthesised in the central or peripheral nervous system [E.E. Baulieu, Psychoneuroendocrinology 23 (1998) 963–87]. This definition was restricted to side-chain “shor...
