Preliminary therapeutic and localization studies with human chorionic gonadotrophin.
Studies in both patients and mice have been carried out using heterologous antibody directed at secreted products of tumors. In preliminary therapeutic studies in patients with drug-resistant choriocarcinoma and malignant teratoma, heterologous anti-human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and anti-alpha-fetoprotein have been combined with continued cytotoxic chemotherapy. The results to date, altho...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotrophin: comparative studies of ovarian uptake in mammals.
-l. The localization of radiolabeled human chorionic gonadotrophin (~2SI-HCG) was studied in a number of commonly used mammalian animal models. 2. The ovary proved to be the target organ for ~25I-HCG in all animals studied. 3. The optimum time for the localization of HCG in the ovary varied in all the mammals extending from 1.5 to 4 hr. 4. HCG is apparently used in the target cell for only a br...

Osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the most common primary malignant bone neoplasms, which predominantly occurs in the long bones and rarely in the maxillofacial area. We present a rare case of maxillary OS early diagnosed in a 17-year-old girl through clinical, radiological and histological examination. The treatment involved surgical resection of the tumor followed by radiation therapy and chemother...
متن کاملUrinary chorionic gonadotrophin determination.
Successful laboratory tests for early pregnancy utilize the endogenous production and excretion of chorionic gonadotrophin (CG). There is wide variation in sensitivity and specificity of various biological and commercially available immunochemical methods for determining urinary CC levels. Normal values for immunochemically reactive CC during the first trimester of pregnancy are given. Serial d...
