In vitro biosynthesis of TSH- and LH-releasing factors by the human placenta
Abstract
Human chorionic membrane and human placental tissue contain substances with the same elution volume as hypothalamic TRF and LRF standards during separation by carboxyl-methyl-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography. Homogenates prepared from fresh human placentas delivered at term caused release of TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone) when bioassayed in rats. After dialysis of placental homogentes, synthesis of biologically active TSH-and LH-releasing factors can be shown to occur in vitro following the addition of appropriate precursor amino acids and cofactors.
