Abstract:YES-associated protein (YAP) is a transcriptional cofactor with a key role in the regulation of several cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), by integrating multiple cell autonomous and microenvironmental cues. YAP overexpression was found in different types of human cancer where it is associated with the acquisition of stemness properties, chemoresistance, increased cell proliferation and survival, metastasis and, ultimately, poor prognosi… Show more
