Journal ArticleDOI

Inactivation of YAP oncoprotein by the Hippo pathway is involved in cell contact inhibition and tissue growth control

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in mammalian cells, the transcription coactivator YAP (Yes-associated protein), is inhibited by cell density via the Hippo pathway, and YAP overexpression regulates gene expression in a manner opposite to cell density, and is able to overcome cell contact inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hippo promotes proliferation arrest and apoptosis in the Salvador/Warts pathway

TL;DR: It is shown that Hippo (Hpo), the Drosophila homologue of the mammalian Ste20-like kinases, MST1/2, promotes proper termination of cell proliferation and stimulates apoptosis during development and that Sav binds to a regulatory domain of Hpo that is essential for its function.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Fat Cadherin Acts through the Hippo Tumor-Suppressor Pathway to Regulate Tissue Size

TL;DR: It is found that the overgrowth phenotypes of fat mutants are similar to those of mutants in Hippo pathway components: fat mutant cells continued to proliferate after wild-type cells stopped proliferating, andFat mutant cells deregulated Hippo target genes such as cyclin E and diap1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic responses of endothelial cells to changes in blood flow during vascular remodeling of the mouse yolk sac

TL;DR: The dynamic and specific endothelial cell behaviors captured in this study reveal how sensitive endothelial cells are to changes in blood flow and how such responses drive vascular remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding vascular development

TL;DR: An overview of the development of the vascular system is provided, highlighting several areas of active investigation and key questions that remain to be answered.
