Abstract
Neuroactive steroids are a class of endogenous steroids synthesized in the nervous tissue and / or capable of having a modulating effect on its functional activity in the brain. The first part of the review is devoted to the little-studied genomic and non-genomic mechanisms of action of pregnenolone, pregnenolone sulfate, and their synthetic analogs, and to the identification of peculiarities of the secretion of pregnenolone and its metabolite in various parts of the central nervous system of rats in the ontogenetic aspect. A number effects of pregnenolone and pregnenolone sulfate are presented, such as modulation of NMDA, GABAA, kainate and AMPA receptors, voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels in vitro and in vivo, etc., an attempt was made to systematize the main effects of neurosteroids depending on the central nervous system.
