## Abstract Neurosteroids are important regulators of central nervous system function and may be involved in processes of neuronal cell survival. This study was undertaken to test the effect of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), pregnenolone (PGL), pregnenolone s

## Abstract Free cytoplasmic dopamine may be involved in the genesis of neuronal degeneration in Parkinson's disease and other such diseases. We used SH‐SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells to study the effect of dopamine on cell death, activation of stress‐induced pathways, and expression of α‐synuclein
## Abstract Recent work has highlighted the involvement of a dopamine derivative, 5‐S‐cysteinyl‐dopamine (CysDA), in neurodegeneration and apoptotic cell death. In this paper we study in further detail the apoptotic process activated by this catechol‐thioether derivative of dopamine in SH‐SY5Y neur
