Laparoscopic hysterectomy as a treatment modality for gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: A report of two cases [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2022 Introduction. Measuring the serum levels of human chorionic gonadotropin beta isoform (β-hCG) remains a crucial marker for diagnosing gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTNs). Choriocarcinoma is commonly diagnosed due to extremely high levels of β-hCG,

Interaction of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) and Asialo-hCG with Recombinant Human Thyrotropin Receptor. [PDF]
, 1994 hCG is a putative thyroid stimulator. The present studies were undertaken to examine its interaction and that of its desialylated variant asialo-hCG with recombinant human TSH (hTSH) receptor (hTSHr). To this end, we transfected a human thyroid carcinoma

Variants of human chorionic gonadotropin from pregnant women and tumor patients recognized by monoclonal antibodies [PDF]
, 1993 In biological fluids, hCG and its free alpha- (hCG alpha) and beta-subunits (hCG beta), occur in multiple forms. These various forms differ at the molecular level primarily in glycosylation, but also differ in protein backbone modifications corresponding
