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 کاملChemical Synthesis of the β-Subunit of Human Luteinizing (hLH) and Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Glycoprotein Hormones
Human luteinizing hormone (hLH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) are human glycoprotein hormones each consisting of two subunits, an identical α-subunit and a unique β-subunit, that form noncovalent heterodimers. Structurally, β-hCG shares a high degree of sequence similarity with β-hLH, including a common N-glycosylation site at the N-terminus but differs mainly in the presence of an ext...
متن کاملThe amino acid sequence of human chorionic gonadotropin. The alpha subunit and beta subunit.
The amino acid sequences of both the alpha and beta subunits of human chorionic gonadotropin have been determined. The amino acid sequence of the alpha subunit is: Ala - Asp - Val - Gln - Asp - Cys - Pro - Glu - Cys-10 - Thr - Leu - Gln - Asp - Pro - Phe - Ser - Gln-20 - Pro - Gly - Ala - Pro - Ile - Leu - Gln - Cys - Met - Gly-30 - Cys - Cys - Phe - Ser - Arg - Ala - Tyr - Pro - Thr - Pro-40 -...
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...
متن کاملP-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...
