A mass-forming cystic appearance of peritoneal recurrence of gastric adenocarcinoma

Journal of Cancer Research and Practice, 2018
Metastatic peritoneal tumors of gastric origin usually appear as multiple small nodules on the peritoneal surface or as scirrhous-type infiltrating lesions. A mass-forming cystic appearance is highly unusual and is unique to peritoneal metastasis. Herein,

Organization and sequence of the gene encoding the human acrosin-trypsin inhibitor (HUSI-II) [PDF]

, 1993
A complete cDNA encoding the acrosin-trypsin inhibitor, HUSI-II, was used as a probe to isolate genomic clones from a human placenta library. Three clones which cover the entire HUSI-II gene were isolated and characterized.

The beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin is encoded by multiple genes.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1983
Two recombinant phage clones bearing sequences corresponding to the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG beta) were isolated from a human genomic library. The beta sequences were mapped by blot hybridization of restriction digests of these phage DNAs and the nonoverlapping inserts were subcloned in pBR322 and sequenced.

Origin and Occurrence of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin β-Subunit Core Fragment [PDF]

Molecular Endocrinology, 1988
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) beta-subunit core fragment (beta-fragment) is present in the urine of pregnant individuals as well as those with trophoblast disease and certain other cancers at concentrations 0.8 (early pregnancy) to 7 (second trimester pregnancy)-fold greater than that of hCG.

Follicle Stimulating Hormone in Cattle Breeding: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Scope

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
FSH is crucial in cattle reproduction, with exogenous administration enhancing breeding and embryo production. Recombinant FSH offers advantages over pituitary‐extracted variants, including fewer injections, reduced stress, and safer production. These innovations improve breeding efficiency, optimize reproductive outcomes, and contribute to sustainable

Immunoreactive human chorionic gonadotropin and its free ß-subunit in serum and ascites of patients with malignant tumors [PDF]

, 1992
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a clinically relevant marker of trophoblastic and nontrophoblastic malignancies. In the present studies, in addition to determining serum hCG, we investigated the presence and properties of hCG immunoreactivity in ...

Anti-HIV effect of beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (βhCG) in vitro

Immunology Letters, 1995
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)--a pregnancy-associated immunomodulating hormone--has been recently shown in vitro to suppress reverse transcriptase activity in chronically HIV-infected lymphocytes and monocytes and to block viral transmission resulting from cell-cell contact between virus-carrying lymphocytes and placental trophoblasts.

Oocyte–cumulus cell interaction: a key factor in early embryo development

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The evaluation of oocyte competence is a fundamental step in achieving successful outcomes following assisted reproduction techniques (ART). At present, however, conventional oocyte maturation assessment is carried out by morphological observation, which is a subjective method that does not consider molecular features.

Sonographic vascularity indices' study in ectopic pregnancies, after methotrexate treatment

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology: X
Objectives: Ectopic pregnancy is a crucial problem in Gynaecology. Previous studies concerning the medical treatment of ectopic pregnancies, have used only β-hCG (beta- human chorionic gonadotropin) values, to monitor the successful response to treatment.

New discoveries on the biology and detection of human chorionic gonadotropin

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2009
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone comprising 2 subunits, alpha and beta joined non covalently. While similar in structure to luteinizing hormone (LH), hCG exists in multiple hormonal and non-endocrine agents, rather than as a ...
