Luteinizing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropin: distinguishing unique physiologic roles.

Gynecological endocrinology : the official journal of the International Society of Gynecological Endocrinology - 1 Mar 2014

Choi Janet, Smitz Johan

Abstract excerpt

Luteinizing hormone (LH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) are integral components of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, which controls sexual maturation and functionality. In the absence of signaling through their shared receptor, fetal sexual differentiation and post-natal development cannot proceed normally. Although they share a high degree of homology, the physiologic roles of these hormones are...
