The difference between peptides and steroids turns on exactly this kind of signaling logic, and HCG is a clean example of a signal rather than a replacement
High-definition white light endoscopy combined with advanced imaging technologies, such as chromoendoscopy (spraying dyes such as Lugols iodine or acetic acid to highlight mucosal abnormalities), narrow-band imaging (NBI, using specific wavelengths of light to enhance mucosal details), and magnifying endoscopy (providing magnified views of the esophageal surface), enable endoscopists to more clearly identify subtle mucosal changes that may represent early tumors
