Abstract excerpt
Attempts to assess human placental GH variant (hGH-V) and chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS) RNA in choriocarcinoma cell lines have been hampered by low levels of expression and limited sensitivity of RNA blotting analysis. We examined human choriocarcinoma BeWo, JAR, and JEG-3 cell lines as well...
