The crystal structure of the β subunit of luteinizing hormone and a model for the intact hormone
Current Research in Structural Biology, 2019 The β subunit of bovine luteinizing hormone (LH) was crystallized and its structure solved to 3.15 Å resolution by molecular replacement using human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) β subunit as search model. The asymmetric unit contains two copies of the β

Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1982 Various carboxyl-terminal peptides of hCG-β were prepared from the corresponding blocked peptides by TFA treatment followed by hydrogenation. The prepared peptides were tested for inhibitory action on the binding between 125I-hCG and the antiserum against the carboxyl-terminal portion of hCG-β.

Platelet-derived factors impair placental chorionic gonadotropin beta-subunit synthesis
Journal of molecular medicine, 2019 During histiotrophic nutrition of the embryo, maternal platelets may be the first circulating maternal cells that find their way into the placental intervillous space through narrow intertrophoblastic gaps within the plugs of spiral arteries.

Localization of human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit transcripts in ovarian cancer tissue.
Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2004 Recent studies demonstrated that besides placenta and malignant trophoblastic tumors, hCG and especially its beta-subunit is secreted by a varieties of tumors of different origin.

Beta-HCG secretion by a pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma: A case report
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2021 Ectopic secretion of beta-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) in pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma is remarkably rare. Such unusual ectopic hormone production by lung cancer may be initially misinterpreted as extragonadal choriocarcinoma or ...
