Thyroid-Stimulating Activity and Chorionic Gonadotropin [PDF]
The nature of the substance with thyroid-stimulating activity (TSA) present in human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) prepared from pregnancy urine was investigated. In the mouse thyrotropin bioassay, the characteristic maximum of blood radioactivity obtained with the TSA in hCG preparations occurred after that obtained with pituitary thyrotropin (hTSH ...

Sensitivity Comparison of Macro- and Micro-electrochemical Biosensors for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Biomarker Detection [PDF]
Selectivity and sensitivity are important figures of merit in the design and optimization of electrochemical biosensors. The efficiency of the fabricated immunosensing surface can easily be influenced by several factors, such as detection limit, non-specific binding, and type of sensing platform.

Amino acid sequence elucidation of human acrosin-trypsin inhibitor (HUSI-II) reveals that Kazal-type proteinase inhibitors are structurally related to β-subunits of glycoprotein hormones [PDF]
The amino acid sequence of the acrosin-trypsin inhibitor HUSI-II from human seminal plasma is presented which unequivocally identifies HUSI-II as being of Kazal-type.

Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Effects on Placental Hormones during Gestation: I. Alpha-Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin and Human Chorionic Somatomammotropin [PDF]
The release of alpha-human chorionic gonadotropin (alpha hCG), gonadotropin human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS) in vitro from placentas of different gestational ages was studied. In addition, the effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) on these hormonal releases, as related to the gestational age of ...

COLLAB: A Global Survey of Clinical and Laboratory Assessment in Alopecia Areata by Hair Specialists
ABSTRACT Background Alopecia areata (AA) is a common non‐scarring alopecia. Data continue to emerge on associations with autoimmune and other conditions. Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are increasingly used to treat AA. Objectives The aim was to assess variation in laboratory testing in patients with AA among hair experts internationally and to compare

A Requirement for Fatty Acid Oxidation in the Hormone-Induced Meiotic Maturation of Mouse Oocytes [PDF]
We have previously shown that fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is required for AMP-activated protein kinase (PRKA)-induced maturation in vitro. In the present study, we have further investigated the role of this metabolic pathway in hormone-induced meiotic ...

Proteomic Investigation of Human Dental Pulp to Identify Individuals Who Are Pregnant
ABSTRACT Biomolecules preserved in dental pulp are increasingly being used to identify individuals in the context of forensics and archaeology. Despite the vast amount of research into host and pathogen DNA, the potential use of physiologically informative proteins preserved in dental pulp has rarely been studied.
