Description

Description: hCG is a peptide hormone that is composed of one alpha and one beta subunit. hCG shares a common alpha chain with the pituitary hormones FSH, TSH and LH, but has a unique beta chain which is recognized by this antibody. hCG is secreted by placental syncytiotrophoblasts and stimulates the ovaries to produce steroids that are essential to pregnancy.
