Neurobiology of Steroids: Volume 22 - V22

Steroid hormones are unique compounds in that they are active at the interface of peripheral endocrine events and neural mechanisms. Thus their effects present an important peripheral signaling system to alter brain function. This volume presents state-of-the-art and classical techniques for the study of steroid hormones and their receptors and their effects and actions.

Key Features
Comprehensive protocols included for the study of
* Steroid kinetics and metabolism
* Steroid receptors
* Molecular and cellular effects of steroids
* Steroid effects on integrated systems
