Abstract excerpt
The Hippo pathway is a highly conserved signalling route involved in organ size regulation. The final effectors of this pathway are two transcriptional coactivators, yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (WWTR1 or TAZ). Previously, we showed aberrant activation of the Hippo pathway in autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), suggesting that YAP/TAZ might...
