The non-canonical Hippo/Mst pathway in lymphocyte development and functions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The canonical Hippo/Mst pathway, originally discovered in Drosophila, is famous for its function in promoting apoptosis, inhibiting cell proliferation and tumorigenesis, and regulating tissue regeneration. However, emerging evidence shows that multiple non-canonical Hippo signaling pathways are also implicated in the regulation of various other biological processes. Recent studies have revealed that Mst1/2, the core kinases of Hippo/Mst pathway are required for T cell development, function, survival, trafficking, and homing, and also involved in regulation of autoimmunity. In this review, we discuss the roles of non-canonical Hippo/Mst signaling pathways in lymphocyte development and functions.

The MST/Hippo Pathway and Cell Death: A Non-Canonical Affair
The MST/Hippo signalling pathway was first described over a decade ago in Drosophila melanogaster and the core of the pathway is evolutionary conserved in mammals. The mammalian MST/Hippo pathway regulates organ size, cell proliferation and cell death. In addition, it has been shown to play a central role in the regulation of cellular homeostasis and it is commonly deregulated in human tumours....
متن کاملInvestigating the mRNA expression levels of Hippo pathway in adenoma polyps
Background Neoplastic adenomatous polyps generating from the epithelial cells are considered benign tumors. Adenomatous polyps are common in western countries and it can take seven to 10 or more years for an adenoma to evolve into cancer. The Hippo signaling pathway, also known as the Salvador-Warts-Hippo (SWH) pathway, is a signaling pathway that controls organ size in animals through the r...
متن کاملFunctional Role of Mst1/Mst2 in Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation
The Hippo pathway is an evolutionary conserved pathway that involves cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and organ size regulation. Mst1 and Mst2 are central components of this pathway that are essential for embryonic development, though their role in controlling embryonic stem cells (ES cells) has yet to be exploited. To further understand the Mst1/Mst2 function in ES cell pluripote...
متن کاملHippo signaling: growth control and beyond.
The Hippo pathway has emerged as a conserved signaling pathway that is essential for the proper regulation of organ growth in Drosophila and vertebrates. Although the mechanisms of signal transduction of the core kinases Hippo/Mst and Warts/Lats are relatively well understood, less is known about the upstream inputs of the pathway and about the downstream cellular and developmental outputs. Her...
متن کاملThe Canonical Wnt Signaling (Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway): A Potential Target for Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Precise regulation of signal transduction pathways is crucial for normal animal development and for maintaining cellular and tissue homeostasis in adults. The Wnt/Frizzled-mediated signaling includes canonical and non-canonical signal transduction pathways. Upregulation or downregulation of the canonical Wnt-signaling (or the Wnt/β-Catenin signal transduction) leads to a variety of human diseas...
