EFFECT OF β-HUMAN CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN (β-HCG) ON NEUTROPHIL FUNCTIONS
Many findings point to the presence of a close relationship between the immune, endocrine and neurologic systems. For example the suppressive effects of β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) on IL-l production, the potentiative effect of enkephalins on lymphocyte functions and the suppressive effect of leuteinizing hormone (LH) on natural killer (NK) cell activities have been clearly esta...
متن کاملEstrogen receptor-β expression and pharmacological targeting in bladder cancer
A role for estrogen signaling in urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB) is suggested to be associated with more advanced disease with worse outcomes in women. Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is the predominant receptor in bladder tissues. We aimed to ascertain whether ERβ correlates with clinicopathological predictors of aggressive bladder cancer and worse survival outcomes. ERβ was measured by im...
متن کاملComparative expression of hCG β-genes in human trophoblast from early and late first-trimester placentas.
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) displays a major role in pregnancy initiation and progression and is involved in trophoblast differentiation and fusion. However, the site and the type of dimeric hCG production during the first trimester of pregnancy is poorly known. At that time, trophoblastic plugs present in the uterine arteries disappear, allowing unrestricted flow of maternal blood to th...
متن کاملThe expression of Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (β-HCG) in human urothelial carcinoma
INTRODUCTION Studies regarding the immuno-histological expression and relevance of Beta-Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (=-HCG) in urothelial carcinoma are few. There is also no clear cut way of predicting exactly which superficial urothelial carcinomas would subsequently recur or progress and which muscle-invasive urothelial tumours would progress. The objective of the study was to study the imm...
متن کامل[Clinical studies of patients with bladder cancers].
A clinical survey was performed on 185 cases of primary bladder cancer treated at our Department of Urology, between January, 1985 and December, 1989. Clinicopathological profiles of patients and survival rates according to these profiles were investigated. The patients were between 29 and 95 years old. The male to female ratio was 3.1 to 1. The cumulative survival rate after the first treatmen...
