Allopregnanolone Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Allopregnanolone is an endogenous inhibitory pregnane neurosteroid that is synthesized from progesterone . It acts as a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors at nM concentrations (exhibiting the greatest potentiation at isoforms containing δ subunits) and of GABAC receptors at μM concentrations. Allopregnanolone displays effects similar to other GABAA receptor potentiators such as benzodiazepines, including potent anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, and sedative activity.

Uses

(3α)-Allopregnanolone acts as a GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator. (3α)-Allopregnanolone is a metabolite of Progesterone (P755900). (3α)-Allopregnanolone is a neuroactive steroid present in the blood and also the brain.

Definition

ChEBI: Brexanolone is a 3-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one in which the hydroxy group at position 3 has alpha-configuration. It is a metabolite of the sex hormone progesterone and used for the treatment of postpartum depression in women. It has a role as a human metabolite, an antidepressant, a GABA modulator, an intravenous anaesthetic and a sedative.

Biological Activity

GABA A receptor positive allosteric modulator. Neuroactive steroid.
