Chorionic gonadotropin (CG), a pregnancy-specific heterodimeric hormone found in primates, is responsible for CL rescue with pregnancy maintenance. Of the primates, the human and baboon gene sequences are the only structures so far determined. In order to study the structure and function of CG in...
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), a 41-amino acid peptide originally found in the hypothalamus, appears to have a fundamental role in the mechanisms responsible for the implantation and maintenance of human pregnancy. Reproductive CRH is a form of tissue CRH (CRH found in peripheral tissues),...
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), also called Müllerian-inhibiting substance or factor, is a dimeric glycoprotein, produced by immature Sertoli cells, and responsible for Müllerian regress ion in male fetuses. To study the ontogeny of AMH production in the male against human recombinant AMH, the AMH...

Estrogen is responsible for all the changes in the female organs. Progesterone hormone allows the uterus to be prepared for a pregnancy. At the time of menopause, women experience many uncomfortable symptoms that are due to fluctuating hormone levels. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) seeks to ...
It is suggested that the stabilization in the corneal biomechanics during the last half of a normal pregnancy may be due to the action of progesterone, which is known inhibit collagenases via prostaglandin inhibition. This would suggest a protective role for progesterone during pregnancy (Koob et ...
