Expression of human chorionic beta subunit in uterine cervix. (A) Electrophoretic separation showing representative RT-PCR results performed for uterine cervix carcinomas. A 210 bp fragment of hCGβ was amplified for the uterine cervix carcinoma (lanes 1 – 4) and placenta (lane 5) samples. Molecular size marker is given in lane M. (B) RT-PCR analysis of total RNA from normal myometrium (lanes 1–2) and uterine cervix tissue (lanes 3–6). Lanes 1, 3 and 5 used RT-PCR primers specific to the hCGβ mRNA as was done in Figure 1A. Lanes 2, 4 and 6 are control RT-PCRs with primers specific to the β-actin mRNA (predict a 509 bp product) to confirm the integrity of the RNA. M – size marker.
