Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and hyperglycosylated hCG, seven semi-independent critical molecules: A review
hCG exists in two analogous structures, as typified by the hormone hCG which binds an LH/hCG hormone receptor and the TGFß receptor binding autocrine hyperglycosylated hCG. Both share a common α-subunit and ß-subunit amino acid sequence. From the common hormone hCG and autocrine hyperglycosylated hCG structures there are seven common hCG variants with wildly varying hormone hCG or autocrine hyp...
متن کاملChoriocarcinoma-like human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and HCG bioactivity during the first trimester of pregnancy.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the distribution of choriocarcinoma-like human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) isoforms during first trimester pregnancy and their relationship with in-vitro HCG bioactivity. This was done by means of a retrospective analysis of patients' sera with first trimester normal intrauterine and abnormal (ectopic) pregnancies. Serum samples were obtained from 3...
متن کاملExpression of luteinizing hormone/human chorionic gonadotrophin (LH/HCG) receptor mRNA in the human ovary.
The gonadotrophins follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) are key hormones in the regulation of ovarian function. In the present study, the expression of LH/human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) receptor mRNAs in the human ovary was examined. Northern blot analysis was used to measure relative amounts of LH/HCG receptor mRNA, and in-situ hybridization was used to localize...
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 کاملHyperglycosylated hCG.
Hyperglycosylated hCG (hCG-H) is a glycosylation variant of the hormone hCG. Here we review all that is known about this independently functioning molecule. As discussed, it is a very different molecule to the hormone hCG. First, hCG-H is produced by cytotrophoblast cells while regular hCG is made in syncytiotrophoblast cell. Second, it is an autocrine acting directly on the cells which produce...
