Abstract:Melanoma progression is generally associated to increased Yes-associated protein (YAP) mediated transcription. Actually, mechanical signals from the extracellular matrix are sensed by YAP, which activates proliferative genes expression, promoting melanoma progression and drug resistance. Which and how extracellular signals induce mechanotransduction is not completely understood.Herein, by secretome studies, we revealed an extracellular accumulation of amyloidogenic proteins, i.e. premelanosome protein (PMEL), … Show more
