Other Information

**Key Characteristics** CGB3 is a beta subunit of the chorionic gonadotropin hormone, which is composed of two alpha subunits and three beta subunits. The beta subunit is responsible for the hormone's biological activity, and CGB3 is the only beta subunit expressed in humans. The CGB3 gene is located on chromosome 19q13.3 and is highly conserved across species, suggesting its importance in reproductive physiology. The gene is also expressed in various immune cells, where it may play a role in regulating immune responses. **Pathways and Functions** CGB3 is involved in several biological pathways, including: 1. **Apoptotic process**: CGB3 has been shown to induce apoptosis in certain cell types, suggesting its role in regulating cell death. 2. **Cell-cell signaling**: CGB3 can interact with other proteins to regulate cell-cell signaling, including the activation of G protein-coupled receptors. 3. **Hormone-mediated signaling**: CGB3 plays a crucial role in the regulation of hormone-mediated signaling pathways, including the pituitary gonadotropin complex. 4. **Transcriptional regulation**: CGB3 can regulate the expression of genes involved in growth factor signaling, including the Tfap2 family of transcription factors. The functions of CGB3 are not fully understood, but it is thought to play a role in regulating reproductive physiology, including: 1. **Pregnancy maintenance**: CGB3 may play a role in maintaining pregnancy by regulating the expression of genes involved in implantation and trophoblast differentiation. 2. **Reproductive hormone regulation**: CGB3 may regulate the expression of genes involved in reproductive hormone production, including the gonadotropins. 3. **Immune regulation**: CGB3 may play a role in regulating immune responses, including the activation of immune cells such as dendritic cells and natural killer cells. **Clinical Significance** The clinical significance of CGB3 is not well understood, but it may play a role in several diseases, including: 1. **Reproductive disorders**: Abnormal expression of CGB3 may contribute to reproductive disorders, including infertility and miscarriage. 2. **Immune disorders**: Abnormal expression of CGB3 may contribute to immune disorders, including autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection. 3. **Cancer**: CGB3 may play a role in cancer development and progression, particularly in reproductive cancers such as choriocarcinoma. In conclusion, CGB3 is an important gene that plays a crucial role in reproductive physiology and immune regulation. Further research is needed to fully understand the functions and clinical significance of CGB3.
