Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone composed of a non-covalently associated alpha subunit (shared with LH, FSH, and TSH) and a unique beta subunit that confers receptor specificity by binding to the luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor (LHCGR). Naturally produced by syncytiotrophoblast cells following implantation, hCG is one of the most widely studied biochemical markers in reproductive biology. In laboratory research, it serves as a tool to investigate LH receptor signaling, Leydig cell steroidogenesis, and corpus luteum maintenance mechanisms.
