[We found that the emergence of the 'trophoblastic' CGB genes in breast tumors is (i) accompanied by an increase in the total CGB mRNA steady-state level, (ii) mainly due to overexpression of genes CGB8, B5 and B3 (expression of other genes in the CGB/LHB gene cluster (CGB7, B2, B1 and LHB) changes little if at all), and (iii) not accompanied by overexpression of the CGA gene which is necessary to produce ectopic hCG heterodimeric hormone in breast tumor cells, these latter which yet expressed the LH/CG receptor.].
