Relation between Human Chorionic Gonadotropin and Thyroid Hormones in Preeclampsia
Aim: Alterations in thyroid function with a simultaneous increase of hCG in some pregnancy diseases have been reported. However, the relationship between thyroid hormones and hCG during preeclampsia is not yet evaluated. In this study we determined serum levels of hCG, TSH, free T3 (fT3) and free T4 (fT4) in normal pregnant woman and in patients with preeclampsia and evaluated the correlation b...
متن کاملSerum beta human chorionic gonadotropin levels and preeclampsia.
OBJECTIVE Preeclampsia is one of the most common complications of pregnancy. It is a trophoblastic disorder. Since human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is secreted by trophoblast, the purpose of the study was to determine the levels of beta (hCG) in preeclampsia and normal cases. METHODS This study was conducted on 40 term pregnant women with preeclampsia (case group) and 40 normal pregnant cas...
متن کاملThyroid-stimulating activity and chorionic gonadotropin.
The nature of the substance with thyroid-stimulating activity (TSA) present in human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) prepared from pregnancy urine was investigated. In the mouse thyrotropin bioassay, the characteristic maximum of blood radioactivity obtained with the TSA in hCG preparations occurred after that obtained with pituitary thyrotropin (hTSH) but before that obtained with long-acting thy...
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 کاملBetween-method variation in human chorionic gonadotropin test results.
BACKGROUND Results on sera and calibrators vary 1.4- to 2.3-fold among commercial human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) assays. The relative contributions of calibrators, standards, hCG charge isoforms, and major structural variants to this variation have not been quantified. METHODS Purified hCG was separated by isoelectric focusing into four fractions with pI ranges of 3-4, 4-5, 5-6, and 6-7. ...
