1.Levels of two other hormones associated with pregnancy—chorionic somatomammotropin and pregnancy-associated glycoprotein—were also far lower than they should have been.
2.Human chorionic gonadotropic (hCG) and human placental latogen (hPL) are peptide hormones produced and excreted by placental trophoblastic cells during pregnancy.
3.Objective To explore the efficacy of drug combination of clomiphene(CL),human menopausal gonadotropin(HMG) and human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG) in treating infertilitas feminis with dyshormonism.
4.Igura K, Zhang X, Takahashi K, et al. Isolation and characterization of mesenchymal progenitor cells from chorionic villi of human placenta. Cytotherapy 2004;6:543-53.
2.These are caused by overstimulation by human chorionic gonadotropin or hCG, a hormone that's produced by the placenta, so they're only seen in pregnancy.
3.So, for example, a pinealoma may lead to increased secretion of the hormone beta human chorionic gonadotropin that can cause an early onset of puberty.
4.Gases and nutrients move back and forth between the decidua basalis and the fetal veins, by diffusing through the tissue layer of the thin chorionic villi.
5.The fetal layer of the placenta on the other hand is called the chorion, which is a tissue that has fingerlike projections called chorionic villi which contain tiny fetal arterioles and venules.
6.They began to notice a pattern of fluctuations throughout a woman's 28 day menstrual cycle and saw a sharp spike in the level of HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in pregnant women, and nowhere else.
7.AFP, though, can be elevated by other conditions as well, so in order to get a more exact diagnosis, additional blood tests for human chorionic gonadotropin, or HCG, inhibin A, and estriol, as well as an ultrasound are usually done.
