Hyperglycosylated hCG

Placenta, 2007
Hyperglycosylated hCG (hCG-H) is a glycosylation variant of the hormone hCG. Here we review all that is known about this independently functioning molecule. As discussed, it is a very different molecule to the hormone hCG. First, hCG-H is produced by cytotrophoblast cells while regular hCG is made in syncytiotrophoblast cell. Second, it is an autocrine

The quagmire of hCG and hCG testing in gynecologic oncology

Gynecologic Oncology, 2009
Few molecules have created so much confusion as the hCG series of molecules. Here we present a comprehensive review of hCG as a tumor marker, of hCG and cancer and modern perspectives on the multiplicity of hCG, and its appropriate use in the management of gynecological malignancies and gestational trophoblastic diseases.

Total hCG tests

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2011
There are 12 types of automated total hCG tests sold today, the Abbott Architect, Abbott AxSym, the Beckman Access 2. Beckman DxI 800, the Ortho Vitros EciQ, Roche Elecsys hCG+β, Siemens ACS180, Siemens Centaur, Siemens Dimension, Siemens Immulite and Siemens Stratus, and the Tosoh A1A. All tests claim to be total hCG tests but do not define what total

Immunochemical Mapping Of Hcg and Hcg-Related Molecules

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1993
The general observations and experiences of three laboratory groups that have studied the immunochemistry of hCG are summarized. A basic model of the types of antibodies which are most frequently observed has been constructed using the information gathered.

Hyperglycosylated hCG, a review

Placenta, 2010
Hyperglycosylated hCG (hCG-H) is a glycoprotein with the same polypeptide structure as hCG, and much larger N- and O-linked oligosaccharides. The oligosaccharides increase the molecular weight of hCG from 36,000 - 37,000 u to 40,000 - 41,000 u, depending on the extent of hyperglycosylation.

Secretion of hCG-α subunit and hCG by HeLa strains

Nature, 1977
IN recent letters1,2, we have independently reported seemingly different secretion patterns of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and its alpha (hCG-α) and beta (hCG-β) subunits by certain HeLa strains. These letters were further discussed in an article in News and Views3.

Treatment of Asthenozoospermia with HCG

Andrologia, 2009
30 patients with isolated asthenozoospermia received a treatment with 5000 I.U. Human-Chorionic-Gonadotropin (HCG) a week intramuscularly for twelve weeks. Pretreatment basal levels of FSH, LH and testosterone were in normal or low normal range. 16 males responded to therapy, the total motility of spermatozoa increased significantly from 34% to 40%. In

hCG in Ectopic Pregnancy

Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2012
Ectopic pregnancies remain an important cause of morbidity and mortality in women of reproductive age. Management of these pregnancies has changed dramatically over the years. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone composed of 2 dissimilar subunits, alpha and beta, joined non-covalently.

Immunization against HCG

Human Reproduction, 1994
The possibility of using the immune system to provide protection against an unwanted pregnancy has been postulated since the very early days of modern immunology. During the past two decades or more, a major goal-directed research effort, involving several independent groups of investigators, has been underway with the objective of developing birth ...
