RACO-1 modulates Hippo signalling in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Oesophageal cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide, whereas the 5-year survival is less than 20%. Although the detailed carcinogenic mechanisms are not totally clear, recent genomic sequencing data showed dysregulation of Hippo signalling could be a critical factor for oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) progression. Therefore, understanding of the molecular mechanisms that control Hippo signalling activity is of great importance to improve ESCC diagnostics and therapeutics.

Regulation of Hippo/YAP signaling and Esophageal Squamous Carcinoma progression by an E3 ubiquitin ligase PARK2.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancer types in China. Recent genomic sequencing analysis indicated the over-activation of Hippo/YAP signaling might play important roles for the carcinogenic process and progression for ESCC patients. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that controls Hippo signaling activity in ESCC.

SHARPIN Inhibits Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression by Modulating Hippo Signaling.

Esophageal cancer is one of the leading malignancies worldwide, while around sixty percent of newly diagnosed cases are in China. In recent years, genome-wide sequencing studies and cancer biology studies show that Hippo signaling functions a critical role in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) progression, which could be a promising therapeutic targets in ESCC treatment. However, the detailed mechanisms of Hippo signaling dys-regulation in ESCC remain not clear.
