Emerging Role of Hippo-YAP (Yes-Associated Protein)/TAZ (Transcriptional Coactivator with PDZ-Binding Motif) Pathway Dysregulation in Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression.
Review in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Although Hippo-YAP/TAZ pathway involvement has been extensively studied in the development of certain cancers, the involvement of this cascade in kidney cancer progression is not well-established and, therefore, will be the focus of this review. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), the most prevalent kidney tumor subtype, has a poor prognosis and a high mortality rate. Core Hippo signaling inactivation (e.g., LATS kinases) leads to the nuclear translocation of YAP/TAZ where they bind to co-transcriptional factors such as TEAD promoting transcription of genes which initiates various fibrotic and neoplastic diseases. Loss of expression of LATS1/2 kinase and activation of YAP/TAZ correlates with poor survival in RCC patients. Renal-specific ablation of LATS1 in mice leads to the spontaneous development of several subtypes of RCC in a YAP/TAZ-dependent manner. Genetic and pharmacological inactivation of YAP/TAZ reverses the oncogenic potential in LATS1-deficient mice, highlighting the therapeutic benefit of network targeting in RCC. Here, we explore the unique upstream controls and downstream consequences of the Hippo-YAP/TAZ pathway deregulation in renal cancer. This review critically evaluates the current literature on the role of the Hippo pathway in RCC progression and highlights the recent scientific evidence designating YAP/TAZ as novel therapeutic targets against kidney cancer.
