The GSL Neurosteroid Panel provides targeted LC-MS/MS analysis of neuroactive steroids and related steroid metabolites involved in stress-brain signaling, neuroendocrine regulation, and steroid pathway biology.
What This Panel Measures
Representative analyte classes may include:
- Pregnenolone-related neurosteroids
- Progesterone-derived neurosteroids
- Allopregnanolone-related metabolites
- Dihydroprogesterone metabolites
- Androgen-related neurosteroids
- Neuroactive steroid sulfates
Representative Analytes
Representative analytes may include pregnenolone, pregnenolone sulfate, progesterone, 5α-dihydroprogesterone, 5β-dihydroprogesterone, allopregnanolone-related metabolites, pregnanolone-related metabolites, allopregnanediol, 7α-hydroxypregnenolone, DHEA, DHEA sulfate, testosterone-related neurosteroids, and selected neuroactive steroid conjugates.
Sample Types
Serum/plasma, tissue, cells, urine, and biological extracts may be supported depending on analyte concentrations and sample availability.
Applications
