Nicotine activates YAP1 through nAChRs mediated signaling in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC).
Cigarette smoking is an established risk factor for esophageal cancers. Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1), the key transcription factor of the mammalian Hippo pathway, has been reported to be an oncogenic factor for many cancers. In this study, we find nicotine administration can induce nuclear transl...
