Marked increase in macrophage migration inhibitory factor synthesis and secretion in human endometrial cells in response to human chorionic gonadotropin hormone.

Effect of human chorionic gonadotropin on sexual maturation, sex steroids and thyroid hormone levels in Caspian lamprey (Caspiomyzon wagneri Kessler, 1870).

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) on sexual maturation, plasma sex steroids (17β-estradiol, E2 and 17α-hydroxy progesterone (17α OHP)) and thyroid hormones (triiodothyronine, T3 and thyroxin, T4) levels in upstream - migrating Caspian lamprey. During the experiment, 36 fish (24 females and 12 males) in  spring 2013 and 36 fish (24 fema...

Research Paper: Effect of Gonal-F on the Rate of Endometrial Wall Thickness Changes in Ovary-Removed Rat in Presence and Absence of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin

Introduction: In implantation, endometrial epithelium is affected by the release of steroid hormones secreted from the ovary and allows the blastocyst to bind. This course is called the “implantation window” and occurs about 4-10 days after the onset of progesterone secretion. Therefore, the endometrium undergoes changes in the configuration of microvilli in the apical membrane, as well as the ...

P-234: Expression of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Hormone Using Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells

Background: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a member of glycoprotein hormones family consist of two different non-covalently heterodimeric chains: alpha and beta subunits with 92 and 145 amino acids respectively. This hormone plays an important role in human reproduction and physiology especially for maintenance of the corpus luteum during the first months of pregnancy Materials and Metho...

Effect of Adding Human Chorionic Gonadotropin to The Endometrial Preparation Protocol in Frozen Embryo Transfer Cycles

The Higher Response of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Angiotensin-II to Human Chorionic Gonadotropin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Background This research investigated the response of vascular active factors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiotensin-II (AT-II) to ovarian stimulation during 24 hours in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). MaterialsAndMethods In this clinical trial study, 52 patients with PCOS and 8 control cases were stimulated with human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) on the 4th ...
