Human chorionic gonadotropin-beta subunit gene expression in cultured human fetal and cancer cells of different types and origins

15 Oct 1995

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The authors' previous investigations using living cultured human cancer cells and cells isolated from cancer tissues, analytical flow cytometry, and monoclonal antibodies directed to epitopes located in five different sites of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) molecule, identified the presence of membrane-associated hCG, its subunits and fragments, by cells from all cancers, irrespective of type...
