Human chorionic gonadotropin and associated molecules.

Expert review of molecular diagnostics - 1 Jan 2009

Cole Laurence A

Abstract excerpt

When considering human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and hCG tests, it is important to realize that it is not a single biological molecule. The regular form of hCG produced by differentiated syncytotrophoblast cells (regular hCG) is a hormone made with the primary function of maintaining the myometrial and decidual spiral arteries and the vascular supply of the placenta during the full course of pregnancy....
