Modulation of innate immune response to viruses including SARS-CoV-2 by progesterone

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2022
Whether and how innate antiviral response is regulated by humoral metabolism remains enigmatic. We show that viral infection induces progesterone via the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in mice.

Progesterone and neuroprotection [PDF]

Hormones and Behavior, 2013
Numerous studies aimed at identifying the role of estrogen on the brain have used the ovariectomized rodent as the experimental model. And while estrogen intervention in these animals has, at least partially, restored cholinergic, neurotrophin and cognitive deficits seen in the ovariectomized animal, it is worth considering that the removal of the ...
