Rapid, hierarchical modulation of vocal patterning by steroid hormones.
Vocal control systems have been identified in all major groups of jawed vertebrates. Although steroid hormones are instrumental in the long-term development and maintenance of neural structures underlying vocalization, it is unknown whether steroids rapidly modulate the neural activity of vocal motor systems. The midshipman fish generates advertisement and agonistic calls that mainly differ in ...
متن کاملModulation of antioxidant enzyme activities by sexual steroid hormones.
Taking into consideration the biological importance of interaction between antioxidant defense (AD) enzymes and sexual steroid hormones it was deemed important to compare our recent achievements in the field with the state of current knowledge. The main goal of the present review was to investigate the changes of AD enzyme activities: superoxide dismutases, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glu...
متن کاملReceptor mechanisms of rapid extranuclear signalling initiated by steroid hormones.
In addition to their role as direct regulators of gene transcription mediated by classical nuclear hormone receptors, steroid hormones have also been described to exert rapid effects on intracellular signalling pathways independent of gene transcription. This chapter focuses on recent advances in our understanding of the receptors and mechanisms that mediate these rapid signalling actions of oe...
متن کاملSteroid Hormones: Membrane transporters of steroid hormones
The discovery of a plasma membrane ABC protein that exports steroids in yeast highlights the possibility that similar membrane sorting systems in mammalian cells may modulate the access of steroids to their receptors.
متن کاملRapid signaling of steroid hormones in the vertebrate nervous system.
Steroid hormones easily cross the blood-brain barrier because of their physicochemical lipid solubility. The hormones act through nuclear receptor-mediated mechanisms and modulate gene transcription. In contrast to their genomic actions, the non-genomic rapid action of steroid hormones, acting via various types of membrane-associated receptors, reveals pharmacological properties that are distin...
