PTH counteracts Hippo signaling via Src-dependent YAP stabilization to enhance bone marrow stromal cell differentiation.
Article in JCI insight, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulates serum calcium and phosphate through its actions in bone and kidney and is used to increase bone in osteoporosis treatment. In bone, PTH targets osteoblasts and osteocytes to regulate bone remodeling but also bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs), regulating their differentiation in the osteoblast or the adipocyte lineage. PTH exerts its action through the PTH/PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), activating adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C (PLC). Although the effects of cAMP and PKA are well characterized, little is known about the effects of PLC activation or on the crosstalk between PTH signaling and other pathways. Here, bulk RNA-Seq of PTH-treated murine BMSC line (W-20) revealed significant changes in the Hippo pathway. In addition to increasing its transcription, PTH stabilized YAP protein, a key target of Hippo, by decreasing YAP/LArge Tumor Suppressor kinase 1 (LATS1) interaction, YAPS127 phosphorylation, and YAP ubiquitination, leading to YAP nuclear translocation and expression of YAP target genes. Similar events occurred in osteocyte cell lines. This occurred via an increase in Src kinase activity: We identified YAPY428 as a key tyrosine residue phosphorylated by Src in response to PTH. Preventing YAPY428 phosphorylation led to YAP instability, blocking both osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of W-20 cells. These results demonstrate active crosstalk between the PTH/PTHrP and the Hippo signaling pathways and reveal that PTH signaling utilizes the PLC/Ca2+/Src tyrosine kinase signaling cascade to influence YAP stability, antagonizing Hippo signaling and favoring stromal cell differentiation. Thus, PTH signaling counteracts the effects of Hippo signaling in BMSCs to favor their differentiation.
