Up-regulation of placental leptin by human chorionic gonadotropin.
Leptin, the 16,000 molecular weight protein product of the obese gene, was originally considered as an adipocyte-derived signaling molecule for the central control of metabolism. However, leptin has been suggested to be involved in other functions during pregnancy, particularly in placenta, in which it was found to be expressed. In the present work, we have found that recombinant human chorioni...
متن کاملEffect of maternal smoking on cord blood estriol, placental lactogen, chorionic gonadotropin, FSH, LH, and cortisol.
AIM To determine the effect of maternal cigarette smoking on cord blood concentrations of E3, hPL, beta-hCG, FSH, LH, and cortisol. METHODS Hormone concentrations were measured in term neonates of 100 smoking and 100 non-smoking mothers. RESULTS The median E3, hPL, beta-hCG, FSH, LH and cortisol cord blood concentrations in the non-smoking mothers' offspring were 212 ng/mL, 2.00 microg/mL, ...
متن کاملHuman Chorionic Gonadotropin
A highly active preparation of human chorionic gonadotropin has been obtained by simple methods of column chromatography on diethylaminoethyl Sephadex and Sephadex G-100. The preparation appeared homogeneous by disc and immunoelectrophoresis, ultracentrifugation, and end group analysis. It assayed at 12,000 i.u. per mg by the rat prostrate gland and accessory sex organ method. The ~20,~ value w...
متن کاملChorionic Gonadotropin in Obesity
It is universally acknowledged that to be overweight is a serious handicap. The literature abounds with insurance statistics which show that the death rate is higher among the obese of every age group. No informed person would deny that obesity is a cause for concern or that it is a legitimate-even essential-subject for much further scientific and clinical investigation. The truth is that scien...
متن کاملImmunological studies with a commercial preparation of human chorionic gonadotropin.
Immunological methods are being used to determine human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in urine and serum during pregnancy (1-4) and also to localize it in tissues and tumors (5). The antisera used in these studies (1-5) were produced by immunizing rabbits with HCG preparations of widely varying specific activities. The HCG-HCG antisera characterization studies that were performed primarily with ...
