We aimed to evaluate the effects of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin on the onset and progression of colon cancer, and to explore their correlations. The expressions of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin in 106 colon cancer tissues and 55 normal colon mucosa tissues were measured by immunohistochemical assay. The correlations between their expressions and clinical and pathological characteristics were analyzed. The expression rates of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin in colon cancer tissues were significantly higher than those in normal colon mucosa tissues (P<0.001). The expressions of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin in colon cancer were correlated with neither gender nor age (P>0.05), but with the degree of differentiation, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis and Duke's stage (P<0.05). Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the expressions of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin in colon cancer tissues were all positively correlated (P<0.05). The overexpression of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin played an important role in the onset and progression of colon cancer, providing reference value for prognosis prediction.

Understanding the physiology and molecular mechanisms of lactogenesis is crucial for enhancing mammalian milk production. Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) regulated mammary epithelial cell survival during pregnancy, but its role in lactation maintenance remains unclear. We found that YAP1 was highly expressed in mammary gland across specie, with elevated expression levels during murine gestation and lactation, particularly localized in alveoli epithelial cells.

Systematic characterization of driver events in the TRACERx non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cohort identified that genetic alterations in six genes, including FAT1, result in homologous recombination (HR) repair deficiencies and CIN. Using orthogonal genetic and experimental approaches, we demonstrate that FAT1 alterations are positively selected before genome doubling and associated with HR deficiency.

Background: Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is associated with hypertension and vascular remodeling. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and the Hippo-YAP pathway are implicated in these processes, but their specific roles remain unclear. This study investigated the HIF-1α/Hippo-YAP pathway in SAS-related hypertension.

The cornea, the anterior meniscus-shaped transparent and refractive structure of the eyeball, is the first mechanical barrier of the eye. Its functionality heavily relies on the health of its endothelium, its most posterior layer. The treatment of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) deficiency is allogeneic corneal graft using stored donor corneas.

In aerobic life forms, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by the partial reduction of oxygen during energy-generating metabolic processes. In plants, ROS production increases during periods of both abiotic and biotic stress, severely overloading the antioxidant systems. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a central role in cellular redox homeostasis and signaling by oxidising crucial cysteines to sulfenic acid, which is considered a biologically relevant post-translational modification (PTM).
