Synthesis of C-terminal peptides of the .BETA.-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).
The hexadecapeptide (A), dotriacontapeptide (B), hexadecapeptide (C) and triacontapeptide (D) related to the carboxyl-terminal region of the β-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) have been synthesized by the fragment condensation method in a conventional manner in order to study their immunological properties.

Tumor-associated antigen human chorionic gonadotropin beta contains numerous antigenic determinants recognized by in vitro-induced CD8+ and CD4+ T lymphocytes. [PDF]
The beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG beta) is markedly overexpressed by neoplastic cells of differing histological origin including those present in colon, breast, prostate and bladder tumors.

Efficacy of Hormone-Toxin Fusion Protein in Cell Culture [PDF]
Luteinizing hormone (LH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) are members of the gonadotropin family and are vital for fertility in animals. Both LH and hCG bind to the luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR), found only in gonadal cells.

Localization of human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit transcripts in ovarian cancer tissue.
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. The aim of the present investigation was to determine the expression pattern of human chorionic gonadotropin gene in ovarian cancer tissue. The study included 8 patients with

Expression of beta human chorionic gonadotrophin by non-trophoblastic non-endocrine 'normal' and malignant epithelial cells. [PDF]
Expression of hCG and its free subunits by non-trophoblastic tumours is well recognised. Previously we reported hCG secretion by normal and malignant bladder epithelial cells in vitro.
