Anyone Familiar with Neurosteroids That Bind to GABA Receptors?

[JasonP]

I read about neurosteroids but I'm not that familiar with them. Does anyone know if they can be bought? I see that they bind to the neurosteroid transmitter site on the GABA receptor. I think more people are familiar with the barbiturate and benzodiazepine site.

This is a picture on the GABA receptor:

If anyone can share some info on this, it would be great.
