Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a member of a family of heterodimeric glycoprotein hormones that contain a common alpha-subunit but differ in their hormone-specific beta-subunits. Both subunits have five and six disulfide bonds, respectively, which consist of cystine knot structure.

Ectopic production of the beta-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin in osteosarcoma.
Production of human chorionic gonadotropin by sarcomas is an uncommon phenomenon that has rarely been documented. A case of a 26-year-old woman with osteosarcoma of the left fibula and high levels of serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-HCG) is described. Immunoperoxidase staining showed numerous tumor cells reacting with the beta-HCG antibody.

Human chorionic gonadotropin and free beta subunits stimulate phospholipid methylation in intact rat Leydig cells [PDF]
The effect of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) on intact Leydig cell phospholipid methylation was studied. Hormonal stimulation of rat Leydig cells increased the incorporation of[methyl-3H]methionine into phospholipids threefold.

Analysis of the Relationship between CGB5 155G/C Polymorphism and in vitro Fertilization-embryo Transfer Outcome (IVF-ET) in the Iranian Population [PDF]
Background: Successful pregnancy depends on the ability of the embryo to achieve appropriate extent of trophoblastic proliferation and invasion into maternal endometrium as well as, once implanted, to induce its own blood supply.
