Human chorionic gonadotropin is a glycoprotein hormone composed of an alpha subunit shared with other pituitary gonadotropins and a distinctive beta subunit.

It acts at the luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor and is used in laboratory research as a stable, well-characterized agonist for studying gonadotropin receptor signaling and reproductive endocrine pathways in preclinical models.

What you should know

More detail on HCG.

Analytical values reflect per-lot documentation and appear once a batch is released.

Compound

The extended half-life of chorionic gonadotropin relative to luteinizing hormone comes largely from its heavily glycosylated beta subunit, and that stability is why it is often preferred over LH as a laboratory receptor agonist. Research applications include receptor-binding studies, cyclic-AMP response measurement in gonadal cell models, and investigation of how glycosylation patterns influence receptor interaction and clearance. It is also a standard reference antigen in assay development. Research use only.
