Abstract

Using a specific RIA for gonadotropin-releasing hormone (I), the presence of I-like material in the 1st trimester human placenta was demonstrated. The material has been partially characterized using CMC chromatog., high pressure gel permeation chromatog., and reverse-phase C18 HPLC anal. Anal. for bioactivity revealed that placental I is much more active than synthetic I in in vitro rat pituitary LH release assay. In vitro biosynthetic studies using labeled precursors and immunoaffinity chromatog. indicated that 1st trimester human placenta synthesizes I-like material.
