AMPK modulates Hippo pathway activity to regulate energy homeostasis
Open accessAbstract
The Hippo pathway was discovered as a conserved tumour suppressor pathway restricting cell proliferation and apoptosis. However, the upstream signals that regulate the Hippo pathway in the context of organ size control and cancer prevention are largely unknown. Here, we report that glucose, the ubiquitous energy source used for ATP generation, regulates the Hippo pathway downstream effector YAP. We show that both the Hippo pathway and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) were activated during glucose starvation, resulting in phosphorylation of YAP and contributing to its inactivation. We also identified glucose-transporter 3 (GLUT3) as a YAP-regulated gene involved in glucose metabolism. Together, these results demonstrate that glucose-mediated energy homeostasis is an upstream event involved in regulation of the Hippo pathway and, potentially, an oncogenic function of YAP in promoting glycolysis, thereby providing an exciting link between glucose metabolism and the Hippo pathway in tissue maintenance and cancer prevention.

Direct phosphorylation of YAP on Ser61/94 is key for the interaction between Yap and Teads.
“and the direct phosphorylation of YAP on Ser61/94, which is key for the interaction between Yap and Teads (100, 145).”
From The Hippo signal transduction network for exercise physiologists (2016) · cites this paper as [145]
The Results section (page not provided) identifies S61 and S94 as AMPK phosphorylation sites and reports that an S94 phospho-mimetic greatly diminished YAP–TEAD interaction. It also reports that an S61 phospho-mimetic did not noticeably affect that interaction, so the claim is not supported for S61. (LLM, conf=0.90)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredGlucose and AMPK are endurance-exercise-related signals that have been linked to YAP/TAZ.
“Endurance exercise-associated signals linked to YAP/TAZ”
From The Hippo signal transduction network for exercise physiologists (2016) · cites this paper as Wang et al Nature Cell Biol (2015)
The Results sections on glucose homeostasis and AMPK show that glucose availability affects YAP phosphorylation and that AMPK associates with and phosphorylates YAP (pages not provided). The paper therefore supports a link between both signals and YAP, but our copy does not establish that they are endurance-exercise-associated signals or show a corresponding link to TAZ. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredBoth glucose starvation and AMPK activators inhibit Yap in different cell types.
“Both glucose starvation (36, 100, 145) and AMPK activators (26, 100, 145) inhibit Yap in different cell types.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
