HCG
Reproductive hormone
HCG is a natural hormone — a protein with sugar groups attached to it. In this catalog it is offered only as a reference material for laboratory study, not as a treatment.
Also known as hCG · Human chorionic gonadotropin · Choriogonadotropin
How it is studied
It works on the reproductive glands by copying one of the body's own reproductive hormones (called LH), fitting the same docking point on those cells that the natural hormone uses.
Research context
Studied in laboratory research on reproductive hormones and how they send their signals. Research use only.
Good to know
This is a natural hormone, not a synthetic research peptide — for laboratory use only.
Research area
Reproductive, Immune & Specialized Research. This group brings together research compounds that work through very different parts of the body. Some send signals in the brain or the reproductive system, one is studied for how it affects the body's defense (immune) system, and a couple are simple nutrients or strong laboratory reference substances. Every item here is described only as a material for laboratory study.
