Abstract excerpt
Human (h) placenta-derived choriocarcinoma cell lines (BeWo, JAR, and JEG-3) were examined for expression of pituitary GH (hGH-N) as well as placental GH variant (hGH-V) and chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS, encoded by the hCS-A or hCS-B gene). RNA was isolated and assessed using hGH-N complement...
