Hippo pathway and breast cancer stem cells.De Maria et al., Roma, Italy. In Crit Rev Oncol Hematol, Jan 2016
Altered Hippo activity, or Hippo-independent mechanisms, mediate the activation of the Hippo transducers TAZ and YAP.
Hippo Pathway in Organ Size Control, Tissue Homeostasis, and Cancer.Guan et al., Shanghai, China. In Cell, Dec 2015
By inhibiting YAP and TAZ transcription co-activators, the Hippo pathway regulates cell proliferation, apoptosis, and stemness in response to a wide range of extracellular and intracellular signals, including cell-cell contact, cell polarity, mechanical cues, ligands of G-protein-coupled receptors, and cellular energy status.
YAP and TAZ Take Center Stage in Cancer.Hong et al., Tianjin, China. In Biochemistry, Dec 2015
In the Hippo pathway, MST1/2 and LATS1/2 regulate downstream transcription coactivators YAP and TAZ, which mainly interact with TEAD family transcription factors to promote tissue proliferation, self-renewal of normal and cancer stem cells, migration, and carcinogenesis.
Alternative Wnt Signaling Activates YAP/TAZ.Guan et al., San Diego, United States. In Cell, Sep 2015
The transcriptional co-activators YAP and TAZ are key regulators of organ size and tissue homeostasis, and their dysregulation contributes to human cancer.
The emerging roles of YAP and TAZ in cancer.Guan et al., San Diego, United States. In Nat Rev Cancer, Feb 2015
Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) are the major downstream effectors of the Hippo pathway, which regulates tissue homeostasis, organ size, regeneration and tumorigenesis.
Transduction of mechanical and cytoskeletal cues by YAP and TAZ.Piccolo et al., Leuven, Belgium. In Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol, 2012
Studies indicate that the transcriptional co-activators YAP and TAZ recently emerged as key mediators of the biological effects that are observed in response to extracellular matrix (ECM) elasticity and cell shape.
