Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Influences Systemic Autoimmune Responses

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Immunopathological outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE; or lupus) are believed to be autoantibody-mediated. Conditions which promote a Th2 skew (such as pregnancy) should encourage antibody production, worsening antibody-mediated diseases while

Purification and characterization of human chorionic gonadotropin

FEBS Letters, 1971
Several investigators [2-71 have previously attempted to purify human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). These methods proved to be either too time consuming, not reproducible, or limited to small quantities. In addition, these purified products are difficult to compare because of differences in the methodology of biological and physico-chemical ...

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not
