| gonadotropin-releasing hormone | <hormone> The peptide hormone that control reproductive function. It produced and released by the hypothalamus and controls the production and release of gonadotrophins from the pituitary gland. It causes the production of luteinising hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone. Synonym: gonadotropin-releasing factor, gonadotropin-releasing hormone, luteinizing hormone/follicle-stimulating hormone-releasing factor, gonadoliberin. Origin: Gonad + L. Libero, to free, + -in (19 Sep 2002) |

| placenta gonadotropin | A glycoprotein with a carbohydrate fraction composed of d-galactose and hexosamine, extracted from the urine of pregnant women and produced by the placental trophoblastic cells; its most important role appears to be stimulation, during the first trimester, of ovarian secretion of the oestrogen and progesterone required for the integrity of conceptus; it appears to play no significant role in the last two trimesters of pregnancy, as the oestrogen and progesterone are then formed by the placenta. Synonym: anterior pituitary-like hormone, choriogonadotropin, chorionic gonadotropic hormone, chorionic gonadotrophic hormone, placenta gonadotropin, placentagonadotropin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin | <veterinary> Formed by the equine placenta. Its activity in animals is similar to that of the follicle-stimulating hormone; relatively ineffective in human beings. Synonym: pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine gonadotropin | <veterinary> Formed by the equine placenta. Its activity in animals is similar to that of the follicle-stimulating hormone; relatively ineffective in human beings. Synonym: pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine gonadotropin unit | <veterinary> The specific gonadotropic activity of 0.25 mg of standard preparation of the gonadotropic principle of pregnant mares' serum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chorionic | Referring to the chorion or membrane enclosing the foetus. (09 Oct 1997) |
| chorionic ectoderm | <embryology> Extra embryonic layer of epithelium that forms around the mammalian blastocyst and attaches the embryo to the uterus wall. Forms the outer layer of the chorion and together with maternal tissue will form the placenta. (18 Nov 1997) |
| chorionic epithelioma | An obsolete term for choriocarcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chorionic gonadotrophic hormone | A glycoprotein with a carbohydrate fraction composed of d-galactose and hexosamine, extracted from the urine of pregnant women and produced by the placental trophoblastic cells; its most important role appears to be stimulation, during the first trimester, of ovarian secretion of the oestrogen and progesterone required for the integrity of conceptus; it appears to play no significant role in the last two trimesters of pregnancy, as the oestrogen and progesterone are then formed by the placenta. Synonym: anterior pituitary-like hormone, choriogonadotropin, chorionic gonadotropic hormone, chorionic gonadotrophic hormone, placenta gonadotropin, placentagonadotropin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chorionic gonadotrophin | <hormone, tumour marker> A hormone that is produced by the developing placenta and by the fertilized egg after implantation in the uterine wall. This hormone is measured in the blood to determine pregnancy. Human chorionic gonadotrophin increases in quantity through the first trimester of pregnancy and begin to taper off after 85 days. Serum human chorionic gonadotrophin testing is accurate 48 hour post conception. Urine human chorionic gonadotrophin testing is a popular method of home pregnancy determination as human chorionic gonadotrophin can be detected in urine. Acronym: HCG (18 Nov 1997) |
| chorionic growth hormone-prolactin | human placental lactogen |
| chorionic plate | That portion of the chorionic wall in the region of its uterine attachment; it consists of the mesoderm that lines the chorionic vesicle and, on the maternal side, of the trophoblast that lines the intervillous spaces; in the last half of gestation, the mesodermal connective tissue is largely replaced by fibrinoid material, and the amniotic membrane is adherent to the foetal side of the plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chorionic sac | 1. Protective membrane around the eggs of insects and fishes. 2. Extraembryonic membrane surrounding the embryo of amniote vertebrates. The outer epithelial layer of the chorion is derived from the tropoblast. (18 Nov 1997) |
| chorionic villi | <anatomy> The vascular projections from the chorion. (27 Sep 1997) |
| chorionic villi sampling | A method for diagnosis of foetal diseases by sampling the cells of the placental chorionic villi for DNA analysis, presence of bacteria, concentration of metabolites, etc. The advantage over amniocentesis is that the procedure can be carried out in the first trimester. (12 Dec 1998) |
| human chorionic gonadotropin |
A hormone, produced by the implanting embryo (and subsequently also by the placenta), whose presence in the woman's blood indicates a possible pregnancy; hCG may also be administered to women undergoing stimulation with hMG alone or in combination with other fertility drugs in order to trigger ovulation. ...

| human chorionic gonadotropin |
A hormone that increases early in pregnancy. This hormone is produced by the placental tissue. Its detection is the basis of pregnancy tests. It can also be used as an LH substitute to trigger ovulation in conjunction with clomiphene or gonadotropin therapy. The US trade names are APL? Pregnyl? and Profas?
