Deregulation of the Hippo pathway in soft-tissue sarcoma promotes FOXM1 expression and tumorigenesis
Open accessAbstract
Genetic aberrations responsible for soft-tissue sarcoma formation in adults are largely unknown, with targeted therapies sorely needed for this complex and heterogeneous family of diseases. Here we report that that the Hippo pathway is deregulated in many soft-tissue sarcomas, resulting in elevated expression of the effector molecule Yes-Associated Protein (YAP). Based on data gathered from human sarcoma patients, a novel autochthonous mouse model, and mechanistic analyses, we determined that YAP-dependent expression of the transcription factor forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) is necessary for cell proliferation/tumorigenesis in a subset of soft-tissue sarcomas. Notably, FOXM1 directly interacts with the YAP transcriptional complex via TEAD1, resulting in coregulation of numerous critical pro-proliferation targets that enhance sarcoma progression. Finally, pharmacologic inhibition of FOXM1 decreases tumor size in vivo, making FOXM1 an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of some sarcoma subtypes.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“In DDLS, UPS, and MFS, the Hippo pathway is frequently deregulated through increased expression of the transcriptional coactivators YAP and TAZ (9, 23–25).”
From Targeting eIF4A-dependent translation in genetically complex sarcoma (2026) · cites this paper as [23]
In the citing paper
“The Hippo effectors YAP and TAZ are paralogs that share similar functions and oncogenic activation in multiple tumor types, including breast and liver cancer and various soft tissue sarcomas including DDLS, MFS, and UPS (9, 23, 24).”
From Targeting eIF4A-dependent translation in genetically complex sarcoma (2026) · cites this paper as [23]
In the citing paper
“This evidence supporting the importance of YAP and TAZ in driving WD/DDLS, MFS, and UPS is bolstered by prior studies showing that Hippo pathway deregulation promotes tumorigenesis in these sarcoma types through activation of YAP and TAZ (23, 24).”
From Targeting eIF4A-dependent translation in genetically complex sarcoma (2026) · cites this paper as [23]
In the citing paper
“Overactivity of YAP and TAZ has also been implicated in the formation of embryonal and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, myxoid liposarcoma, fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, and synovial sarcoma (23, 45–47).”

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.
