Project description:Organ development is a complex process governed by the interplay of several signalling pathways that have critical functions in the regulation of cell growth and proliferation. Over the past years, the Hippo pathway has emerged as a key regulator of organ size. Perturbation of this pathway has been shown to play important roles in tumorigenesis. YAP, the main downstream target of the mammalian Hippo pathway, promotes organ growth, yet the underlying molecular mechanism of this regulation remains unclear. Here we provide evidence that YAP activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), a major regulator of cell growth. We have identified the tumour suppressor PTEN, an upstream negative regulator of mTOR, as a critical mediator of YAP in mTOR regulation. We demonstrate that YAP downregulates PTEN by inducing miR-29 to inhibit PTEN translation. Last, we show that PI(3)K–mTOR is a pathway modulated by YAP to regulate cell size, tissue growth and hyperplasia. Our studies reveal a functional link between Hippo and PI(3)K–mTOR, providing a molecular basis for the coordination of these two pathways in organ size regulation.

Project description:Background—YAP, the nuclear effector of Hippo signaling, regulates cellular growth and survival in multiple organs, including the heart, by interacting with TEAD sequence specific DNA-binding proteins. Recent studies showed that YAP stimulates cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival. However, the direct transcriptional targets through which YAP exerts its effects are poorly defined. Methods and Results—To identify genes directly regulated by YAP in cardiomyocytes, we combined differential gene expression analysis in YAP gain- and loss-of-function with genome-wide identification of YAP bound loci using chromatin immunoprecipitation and high throughput sequencing. This screen identified Pik3cb, encoding p110β, a catalytic subunit of phosphoinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), as a candidate YAP effector that promotes cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival. We validated YAP and TEAD occupancy of a conserved enhancer within the first intron of Pik3cb, and show that this enhancer drives YAP-dependent reporter gene expression. Yap gain- and loss-of-function studies indicated that YAP is necessary and sufficient to activate the PI3K-Akt pathway. Like Yap, Pik3cb gain-of-function stimulated cardiomyocyte proliferation, and Pik3cb knockdown dampened the YAP mitogenic activity. Reciprocally, Yap loss-of-function impaired heart function and reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival, all of which were significantly rescued by AAV-mediated Pik3cb expression. Conclusion—Pik3cb is a crucial direct target of YAP, through which the YAP activates PI3K-AKT pathway and regulates cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival. Yap wild type ChIPseq and input

Two groups were involved in this study:TNTcreYapfl_het group and TNTcreYapfl_KO group. Each group contained three biological replicates. Embryo hearts were collected at E12.5 and dissociated. Cardiomyocytes were collected by FACS. The total RNA of cardiomyocytes were isolated for microarray analysis.

Project description:Luteolin is a flavonoid compound with a variety of pharmacological effects. In this study, we explored the effects of luteolin on monocrotaline (MCT) induced rat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and underlying mechanisms. A rat PAH model was generated through MCT injection. In this model, luteolin improved pulmonary vascular remodeling and right ventricular hypertrophy, meanwhile, luteolin could inhibit the proliferation and migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells induced by platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, our results showed that luteolin could downregulate the expression of LATS1 and YAP, decrease YAP nuclear localization, reduce the expression of PI3K, and thereby restrain the phosphorylation of AKT induced by PDGF-BB. In conclusion, luteolin ameliorated experimental PAH, which was at least partly mediated through suppressing HIPPO-YAP/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Therefore, luteolin might become a promising candidate for treatment of PAH.

Project description:The Post-translational modification of Hippo/YAP pathway members plays an important role in regulating the activation of Hippo/YAP pathway and its effects in tumors. S-Palmitoylation, also known as S-acylation, is the most common protein Lipid modification, mainly composed of palmitoyl transferases (PATs) from the DHHC (Asp His His Cys) family Catalysis. The results showed that ZDHHC15 mediated palmitoylation of KIBRA up-regulated the expression of YAP downstream target genes, and regulated the invasion function of breast cancer and ovarian cancer cells. The research results will reveal new regulatory mechanisms of the Hippo pathway

Project description:Src family kinases (SFKs), including Src, Fyn and Yes, play important roles in development and cancer. Despite being first discovered as the Yes-associated protein, the regulation of Yap by SFKs remains poorly understood. Here, through single-cell analysis and genetic lineage tracing, we show that the pan-epithelial ablation of C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) in the lacrimal gland unleashes broad Src signaling but causes cell competition-mediated extrusion and apoptosis of only acinar progenitors. Csk mutants can be phenocopied by constitutively active Yap and rescued by the genetic ablation of Yap or Taz, indicating remarkable functional equivalence between Src and Yap signaling. Although Csk inactivation induces tyrosine phosphorylation of Yap, mutating these tyrosine residues in both Yap and Taz fails to alleviate the Csk lacrimal gland phenotype. In contrast, Yap loses Hippo signaling-dependent serine phosphorylation and translocates into the nucleus in Csk mutants. Chemical genetics studies further demonstrate that acute inhibition of Csk enhances Crk/CrkL phosphorylation and Rac1 activity, whereas the deletion of either Crk/CrkL or Rac1/Rap1 rescues the Csk mutant phenotype. These results show that Csk controls Hippo-Yap signaling through the Crk/CrkL-Rac/Rap axis to regulate cell competition.
