Pancreatic cancer is one of the most threatening and poorly understood human malignancies. MEKK3 (MAP3K3) is a serine/threonine kinase activated by different signaling pathways. YAP and TAZ are critical oncogenic effectors in pancreatic cancer. We hypothesized that MEKK3 could sustain pancreatic cancer by inducing YAP/TAZ oncogenic activities.

Abstract

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most threatening and poorly understood human malignancies. MEKK3 (MAP3K3) is a serine/threonine kinase activated by different signaling pathways. YAP and TAZ are critical oncogenic effectors in pancreatic cancer. We hypothesized that MEKK3 could sustain pancreatic cancer by inducing YAP/TAZ oncogenic activities.
