1. PRODUCT SUMMARY
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a highly purified glycoprotein hormone investigated for its potent agonistic effects on the Luteinizing Hormone (LH) receptors. In clinical research settings, hCG serves as a critical surrogate for LH due to its longer half-life and superior receptor affinity. It is widely utilized to examine the regulation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal (HPG) axis, steroidogenic pathways, and reproductive signaling mechanisms.
2. STORAGE & STABILITY PROTOCOL
Lyophilized Powder: Maintain at -20°C (-4°F) for long-term storage (up to 2 years). Short-term refrigeration at 2–8°C is acceptable for up to 3 months.
Reconstituted Solution: Once the powder is dissolved, it is highly susceptible to enzymatic degradation. It is recommended to use the solution immediately. If storage is necessary, keep at 2–8°C and utilize within a strictly limited timeframe to ensure research accuracy.
Handling: Protect from UV light and minimize exposure to room temperature.
3. POTENTIAL RESEARCH APPLICATIONS
Steroidogenesis Research: Investigation of primary hormonal responses in Leydig or Granulosa cell models.
HPG Axis Modulation: Studying the feedback loops of gonadotropins and their impact on systemic hormone levels.
Reproductive Models: Analyzing follicle maturation and luteal phase dynamics in preclinical assays.
Clinical Assay Calibration: Used in laboratory settings for the validation of hormone potency and dosing precision.
