In addition to being a steroid hormone, 17β-estradiol (E(2)) is also a neurosteroid produced in neurons in various regions of the brain of many species, including humans. Neuron-derived E(2) (NDE(2)) is synthesized from androgen precursors via the action of the biosynthetic enzyme aromatase, which i...
