Abstract
The heart utilizes glucose and its metabolites as both energy sources and building blocks for cardiac growth and survival under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. YAP/TAZ, transcriptional co-activators of the Hippo pathway, are key regulators of cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism in many cell types. Increasing lines of evidence suggest that the Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling pathway is involved in the regulation of both physiological and pathophysiological processes in the heart. In particular, YAP/TAZ play a critical role in mediating aerobic glycolysis, the Warburg effect, in cardiomyocytes. Here, we summarize what is currently known about YAP/TAZ signaling in the heart by focusing on the regulation of glucose metabolism and its functional significance.
期刊介绍:
The official journal of the Japanese College of Cardiology is an international, English language, peer-reviewed journal publishing the latest findings in cardiovascular medicine. Journal of Cardiology (JC) aims to publish the highest-quality material covering original basic and clinical research on all aspects of cardiovascular disease. Topics covered include ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, vascular disease, hypertension, arrhythmia, congenital heart disease, pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment, new diagnostic techniques, and cardiovascular imaging. JC also publishes a selection of review articles, clinical trials, short communications, and important messages and letters to the editor.
