YAP1 MAINTAINS ACTIVE CHROMATIN STATE IN HEAD AND NECK SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMAS THAT PROMOTES TUMORIGENESIS THROUGH COOPERATION WITH BRD4

YAP1 maintains active chromatin state in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas that promotes tumorigenesis through cooperation with BRD4

Summary: Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas and other published data of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) reveals somatic alterations of the Hippo-YAP pathway in approximately 50% of HNSCC.Better strategies to target the YAP1 transcriptional complex are sought.Here, we show that FAT1, an upstream inhibitor of YAP1, is mutated either by

Helminth-Induced and Th2-Dependent Alterations of the Gut Microbiota Attenuate Obesity Caused by High-Fat DietSummary

Background & Aims: Epidemiological and animal studies have indicated an inverse correlation between the rising prevalence of obesity and metabolic syndrome and exposure to helminths.Whether helminth-induced immune response contributes to microbiota remodeling in obesity remains unknown.The aim of this study is to explore the immune-regulatory r
