Abstract | Background: The process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) involves the trans-differentiation of epithelial cells to mesenchymal cells associated with high plasticity. It usually occurs when the cells acquire migratory and invasive characteristics due to the weakening or the loss of cell-cell adhesion. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a pregnancy hormone, consists of a common α subunit which is shared by three other hormones, thyroid stimulating hormone, luteinizing |
