Human Chorionic Gonadotropin and Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is well known as a malignancy being strongly influenced by female steroids. Pregnancy is a protective factor against breast cancer. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a candidate hormone which could mediate this antitumoral effect of pregnancy. For this review article, all original research articles on the role of HCG in breast cancer were considered, which are listed in PubMed...
متن کاملTreatment with human chorionic gonadotropin and risk of breast cancer.
Studies of the induction of mammary tumors by 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene in a rat model show that human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration reduces tumor incidence in a manner comparable to that of a completed pregnancy. On the basis of their studies, Russo and Russo (Cancer Epidemiol., Biomarkers & Prev., 3: 353-364, 1994) have proposed that hCG treatment of young nulliparous women...
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...

Studies of the induction of mammary tumors by 7,12dimethlybenz(a)anthracene in a rat model show that human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration reduces tumor incidence in a manner comparable to that of a completed pregnancy. On the basis of their studies, Russo and Russo (Cancer Epidemiol., Biomarkers & Prey., 3: 353-3M, 1994) have proposed that hCG treatment of young nulliparous women w...
متن کاملEFFECT OF β-HUMAN CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN (β-HCG) ON NEUTROPHIL FUNCTIONS
Many findings point to the presence of a close relationship between the immune, endocrine and neurologic systems. For example the suppressive effects of β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) on IL-l production, the potentiative effect of enkephalins on lymphocyte functions and the suppressive effect of leuteinizing hormone (LH) on natural killer (NK) cell activities have been clearly esta...
