I’m on a YAP kick lately! This is another paper about the Hippo pathway and YAP but in relation to glucose homeostasis and cellular energy stress. In summary, the Hippo pathway is a tumor suppressor pathway. Energy stress, defects in glucose metabolism, and glucose starvation, all activate this pathway and decrease oncogenic downstream components (specifically YAP). The implications? Metabolic regulation and glucose homeostasis are integral pieces in the puzzle that is “What causes cancer?” Summary & Key Points: The Hippo pathway is a signaling pathway that is involved in the control of tissue and organ size in the body.
