“…In addition to hCRH, hCG, and chorionic somatomammotropin, several other peptide hormones are expressed in the human placenta (27). These include ACTH (28), thyrotropinreleasing hormone (29), gonadotropin-releasing hormone (30), and somatostatin (31).…”

“…In the mammalian foetus, plasma calcium levels are maintained at a higher level than maternal by means of a placental calcium pump which is driven by some hitherto unknown mechanism (Fisher, 1986). Plasma PTH levels by radioimmunoassay are lower in the foetus than in the mother, but PTH-like bioactivity, measured by a sensitive cytochemical assay, is higher in the foetus than in the mother (Allgrove et a/., 198 I, 1985).…”

“…To cite an example of the roles of gonadotropins in fetal physiology, sexual differentiation is associated with hCG [10] and FSH [11]. Because the fetal liver develops morphologically and functionally, the ontogenesis of ASGP receptor is of interest.…”
