The Role of Allopregnanolone Levels in Traumatic Brain Injury in Children and Adults and the Correlation of Its Levels with Computerized Tomography Images of the Brain

open access: yesIndian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2020
Aim Allopregnanolone (AP) is a steroid of progesterone origin and it can readily pass through the blood–brain barrier. The aim of this study was to determine the AP levels occurring after head trauma in children and adults and to compare these results to

Beyond the streetlight: a TREAT‐AD perspective on where to find new Alzheimer's targets

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Despite extensive investments in Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapeutic development, progress toward effective interventions remains modest. The landscape of potential novel therapeutic strategies is rapidly growing, but prioritization, validation, and tools to advance targets to trial are lagging.

Allopregnanolone Modulates GABAAR-Dependent CaMKIIδ3 and BDNF to Protect SH-SY5Y Cells Against 6-OHDA-Induced Damage

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Allopregnanolone (APα), as a functional neurosteroid, exhibits the neuroprotective effect on neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) through γ-aminobutyric acid A receptor (GABAAR), but it has not been completely understood about its ...

Dissociating Allopregnanolone Mnemonic Effects from Sedation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Allopregnanolone (Allop) is a neurosteroid metabolite of progesterone. Allop modulates cognition, specifically learning and memory, but these effects are frequently confounded by its anxiolytic and sedative properties.

Procedural separation of appetitive and consummatory behaviors in operant ethanol self‐administration: A review and open‐source analytical framework

open access: yesAlcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review highlights the biphasic sipper model pioneered by Dr. Hank Samson's laboratory, which separates appetitive and consummatory behaviors in rodent ethanol self‐administration. Over two decades of research using this paradigm reveals that alcohol‐directed behaviors are dynamic, shaped by internal states, cues, and experience.
