Radioimmunoassay of human chorionic somatomammotropin in serum, amniotic fluid, and urine.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is described for measurement of human chorionic somatomammotropin (HCS) by use of a double-antibody technique, for concentrations ranging from 2 ng/ml to 20 tg/mI. The cross-reactive characteristics of rabbit anti-human HCS serum No. CT 3399 from NIAMD are explored. A dilution plan is presented utilizing a standard curve from 0.75 to 80 ng/ml. Concentrations (mean and ranges) for HCS in maternal serum (evaluated every four weeks during pregnancy), umbilical cord serum, serum from babies, amniotic fluid, and urine are given.

Hormone release by primary amniotic fluid cell cultures.
Amniotic fluid cells have been widely used in prenatal diagnosis; however, there is great heterogeneity of the cells and their origin. In this study we analyze the karyotype and release of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS), free estriol (E 3), prolactin (PRL) and progesterone (P) of amniotic fluid cells from primary cultures of six normal and two anence...

a,-Microglobulin levels in serum and urine were estimated by using single radial immunodiffusion, resulting in the following mean values: umbilical cord blood serum, 40*6 mg/I; normal adult serum, 44-2 mg/I; and normal urine, 5 7 mg/24 h urine volume. Slightly higher levels of serum a1-microglobulin were found in infants and the aged. Serum and urine a,-microglobulin levels in patients with ren...

The purification of a placental growth-promoting hormone, Ovine Chorionic Somatomammotropin (OCS), and its main physicochemical, immunological and biological properties were studied. OCS diffused into the amniotic fluid and was excreted into the allantoid fluid, but its concentrations in these compartments remained very low by comparison with the maternal or fetal serum. The total growth activi...

Background: Multiple Myeloma is a Plasma Cell Malignancy. Since the study of pathogenicity mechanisms and messenger pathways involved in the causative agent cells is important in the laboratory environment and close to the physiological environment of the body, therefore, the best environment for the study of cells in the laboratory environment, an environment most closely resembling the physio...

The bioactivity of human prolactin (hPRL) and human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS) in the sera from the pregnant women (30-40weeks of gestation) and in the amniotic fluid (37-41weeks of gestation) were determined individually by the bioassay for lactogenic hormones using rat lymphoma cell bioassay in combination with the antibody blocking method. The bioactivity of hPRL in the pregnant sera ...
