Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) versus magnesium sulfate to arrest preterm
Introduction: Considering the high incidence of preterm labor and its known complications, and that human myometrium contains receptors for human chronic gonadotropin (hCG) and that hCG can inhibit myometrial contractions on vitro, made me study treating effects of hCG on preterm labor. This clinical trial study was carried out to compare the effect of hCG, and magnesium sulfate (mgso4) on pre...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and prevention of breast cancer.
Animal and 'in vitro' experiences learned that human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is capable to protect from breast cancer. Receptors for hCG/luteinizing hormone (LH) are present on human female and male breast cancer cells. hCG decreases proliferation and invasion of breast cancer MCF-7 cells by inhibiting NF-kappa B, AP-1 activation and other genes. Doxorubicin toxicity is enhanced by conjuga...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) induction of apoptosis in breast cancer.
10658 Background: Apoptotic induction in cancer cells may improve the efficacy of local or systemic therapy. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) injection directly into Kaposi's sarcoma or melanoma has been shown to increase the apoptotic index in these tumor types. The rapid induction of apoptosis in breast cancer immediately preceding local or systemic therapy may improve the response to thera...
متن کاملInteraction of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and asialo-hCG with recombinant human thyrotropin receptor.
hCG is a putative thyroid stimulator. The present studies were undertaken to examine its interaction and that of its desialylated variant asialo-hCG with recombinant human TSH (hTSH) receptor (hTSHr). To this end, we transfected a human thyroid carcinoma cell line (HTC) lacking endogenous TSHr with the full-length cDNA of the hTSHr. Unlike the wild type, the transfected cells, termed HTC-TSHr c...
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...
