Two Hormones for One Receptor: Evolution, Biochemistry, Actions, and Pathophysiology of LH and hCG

Abstract LH and chorionic gonadotropin (CG) are glycoproteins fundamental to sexual development and reproduction. Because they act on the same receptor (LHCGR), the general consensus has been that LH and human CG (hCG) are equivalent. However, separate evolution of LHβ and hCGβ subunits occurred in...
