LCK inhibition downregulates YAP activity and is therapeutic in patient-derived models of cholangiocarcinoma
24 Sept 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: There is an unmet need to develop novel, effective medical therapies for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). The Hippo pathway effector, Yes-associated protein (YAP), is oncogenic in CCA, but has historically been difficult to target therapeutically. Recently, we described a novel role for the LCK proto-oncogene, Src family tyrosine kinase (LCK) in activating YAP through tyrosine phosphorylation. This...
