LSC - 2017 - Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling is deranged in IPF
Objective: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating disease with no cure and is characterized by deranged epithelial repair, myofibroblast activation, and excess deposition of extracellular matrix. Yes associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-regulator with PDZ-binding domain(TAZ), co-transcriptional activators of the Hippo pathway and proto-oncogenes, were recently found to be
