Chorionic Gonadotropin in Obesity
It is universally acknowledged that to be overweight is a serious handicap. The literature abounds with insurance statistics which show that the death rate is higher among the obese of every age group. No informed person would deny that obesity is a cause for concern or that it is a legitimate-even essential-subject for much further scientific and clinical investigation. The truth is that scien...
متن کاملTrophoblast production of a weakly bioactive human chorionic gonadotropin in trisomy 21-affected pregnancy.
Total human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is high in maternal serum at 14-18 wk of trisomy 21 (T21)-affected pregnancy, despite low placental hCG synthesis. We sought an explanation for this paradox. We first observed that, in T21-affected pregnancies, maternal serum hCG levels peaked at around 10 wk and then followed the same pattern throughout pregnancy as in controls, albeit at a higher (2.2-...

متن کاملSMAD1/5 Signaling in the Early Equine Placenta Regulates Trophoblast Differentiation and Chorionic Gonadotropin Secretion
TGFβ superfamily proteins, acting via SMAD (Sma- and Mad-related protein)2/3 pathways, regulate placental function; however, the role of SMAD1/5/8 pathway in the placenta is unknown. This study investigated the functional role of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)4 signaling through SMAD1/5 in terminal differentiation of primary chorionic gonadotropin (CG)-secreting trophoblast. Primary equine tr...
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...
