Figure 4From: Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein (StAR): Evidence of Gonadotropin-Induced Steroidogenesis in Alzheimer DiseaseSchematic of LH action in AD. Upon binding to its receptor on neurons and/or glial cells within the brain, LH potentially induces signaling cascades that result in increased StAR expression and possibly subsequent increases in steroidogenesis via autocrine or paracrine signaling mechanisms.Back to article page
