abstract：:The role played by progestogens in modulating Schwann cell pathophysiology is well established. Progestogens exert their effects in these cells through both classical genomic and non-genomic mechanisms, the latter mediated by the GABA-A receptor. However, there is evidence that other receptors may be involved. Membran...
