Abstract excerpt
The expression of Yes-associated protein (YAP) has been reported to be dysregulated in pancreatic cancer. However, its contributions to tumor formation and progression remain to be elucidated. The present study demonstrated that YAP overexpression promoted the epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a manner associated with pancreatic cancer invasion in vitro. RNA interference‑mediated silencing of YAP...
