Description of:Allopregnanolone(CAS;516-54-1)
Allotetrahydroprogesterone is a GABA(A) receptor modulator potentially for the treatment of epilepsy and depression.
Allopregnanolone induces a significant increase in proliferation of neuroprogenitor cells derived from the rat hippocampus and human neural stem cells derived from the cerebral cortex in a dose-dependent manner. Allopregnanolone increases the expression of genes that promote mitosis and inhibits the expression of genes that repress cell proliferation[1]. Its biosynthesis begins with progesterone, which is converted to dihydroprogesterone by the enzyme 5α-DHP and after that, the enzyme 3α-HSOR catalyses the reduction of dihydroprogesterone toward allopregnanolone[2]
