”Got Guts” the Micro Version with Jihane N. Benhammou
Manage episode 377739472 series 3332773
In this episode, Dr. Jihane N. Benhammou of UCLA discusses the recently published article titled "Lipophilic statins inhibit YAP coactivator transcriptional activity in HCC cells through Rho-mediated modulation of actin cytoskeleton."
NEW & NOTEWORTHY Statins are widely used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Recently, their use has been associated with a decrease in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, their mechanism(s) has remained elusive. In this study, we delineate the mechanism by which statins affect the Yes-associated protein (YAP), which has emerged as a key oncogenic pathway in HCC. We investigate each step of the mevalonate pathway and demonstrate that statins regulate YAP via Rho GTPases.
