Angiogenesis is a complex process involving dynamic interaction of various cell to cell interactions. Endothelial cell interactions regulated by growth factors, inflammatory cytokines, or hemodynamic stress are critical for balancing vascular quiescence and activation. Yes-associated protein (YAP), an effector of Hippo signaling, is known to play significant roles in maintaining cellular homeos...
Yes-associated protein (YAP) has been shown to play a critical role in the growth of various tumours. Phosphorylation of Ser127 of YAP leads to the inhibition of YAP translocation into nucleus and subsequent failure to regulate the expression of target genes that induce cell proliferation. Chemical manipulation of YAP localization or expression may provide an efficient method for cancer treatme...
The transcriptional coactivator Yes-associated protein (Yap) promotes proliferation and inhibits apoptosis, suggesting that Yap functions as an oncogene. Most oncogenes, however, require a combination of at least two signals to promote proliferation. In this study, we present evidence that Yap activation is insufficient to promote growth in the otherwise normal tissue. Using a mosaic mouse mode...
Previous studies have indicated that stiehopus japonieus acidic mucopolysaccharide (SJAMP) could inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cell SW1990. However, the mechanism remains unclear. In our study, YAP expression was identified by immunohistochemistry and quantitative Real-time PCR from 45 pairs of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tissues and their adjacent non-tumor s...
The Drosophila TEAD ortholog Scalloped is required for Yki-mediated overgrowth but is largely dispensable for normal tissue growth, suggesting that its mammalian counterpart may be exploited for selective inhibition of oncogenic growth driven by YAP hyperactivation. Here we test this hypothesis genetically and pharmacologically. We show that a dominant-negative TEAD molecule does not perturb no...
In cell proliferation, stem cell differentiation, chemoresistance, and tissue organization, the ubiquitous role of YAP/TAZ continues to impact our fundamental understanding in numerous physiological and disease systems. YAP/TAZ is an important signaling nexus integrating diverse mechanical and biochemical signals, such as ECM stiffness, adhesion ligand density, or cell-cell contacts, and thus s...
Hippo signaling is a critical player in controlling the growth of several tissues and organs in diverse species. The current model of Hippo signaling postulates a cascade of kinase activity initiated by the MST1/2 kinases in response to external stimuli. This leads to inactivation of the transcriptional coactivators, YAP/TAZ, due to their cytoplasmic retention and degradation that is correlated...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Paclitaxel (PTX) is one of the most effective anti-cancer drugs. However, multiple drug resistance is still the main factor that hinders the effective treatment of cancer with PTX. Several factors including YAP over-expression can cause PTX resistance. In this study, we aimed to verify the role YAP plays in PTX resistance, explore the reversal of PTX resistance by verteporfin (V...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains a group of transcription factors related to mammalian c-Jun. This yeast Jun-family of proteins consists of GCN4, a regulator of genes involved in amino acid biosynthesis, and yAP-1, a factor conferring pleiotropic drug resistance when overexpressed. In the work described here, we show that a third member of the yeast Jun-family exists. This protein has been des...
The Yes‑associated protein (YAP) transcriptional coactivator is recognized as a crucial regulator of human cancer. However, its involvement in human non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in response to physical cues remains unclear. In this study, substrates with different rigidity were generated in order to evaluate the role of YAP, and its upstream regulators in the Hippo pathway, in the regulat...
