Elimination of luteinizing hormone cross-reactive epitopes from human chorionic gonadotropin
The beta-chain of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) has been shown to have efficacy in clinical trials when used as a contraceptive vaccine. This hormone is a heterodimer, the alpha-chain being shared with the other members of the glycoprotein hormone ...

Ability of human chorionic gonadotropin β-subunit to inhibit the steroidogenic response to lutropin
Ability of the β-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin to inhibit the response to lutropin (luteinizing hormone, LH) was tested in the immature rat ovarian system and pregnant-mare-serum-gonadotropin-primed rat ovarian system with progesterone ...

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) /
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is produced during pregnancy by the embryo. It promotes progesterone production by corpus luteal cells. It also functions in pregnancy to promote angiogenesis in uterine vasculature, it immuno-blands the invading ...

Advanced esophageal carcinoma expressing Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG-b) [PDF]
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG; HCGb) is expressed by various solid malignancies, including lung, pancreas, gastric and cervical cancers. Some previous studies suggest that this indicates an adverse prognosis.

Periodontitis and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: Mechanistic Evidence
This narrative review aims to describe mechanisms linking periodontal diseases in pregnancy with adverse pregnancy outcomes. ABSTRACT Periodontal diseases, including both gingivitis and periodontitis, occur commonly among pregnant individuals. Both gingivitis and periodontitis are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) such as early ...

Beta-Subunit of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin in Malignant Lymphoma : An Immunohistochemical Study [PDF]
We present a rare case of a 77-year-old Japanese man with malignant lymphoma associated with production of beta-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin in the cytoplasms of lymphoma cells in the lymph nodes.

Effects of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) on In Vitro Cultured Equine Chorionic Girdle Cells
Introduction: Equine chorionic girdle cells can give rise to the endometrial cup, a structure that secretes equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG). To date, the mechanisms underlying the proliferation, differentiation, invasion, and hormone secretion of ...
