摘要

Background

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumours, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) being the predominant type. The morbidity and mortality rates of lung cancer are increasing worldwide. The Hippo signalling pathway is one of the eight classical human cancer signalling pathways, forming a complex signalling network regulated by intracellular and extracellular signals. Under physiological conditions, it plays a crucial role in inhibiting tumor development.

Main text

Inhibition of the Hippo signalling pathway leads to abnormal activation of its downstream core components, YAP/TAZ, which in turn enhances tumor cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Recent studies have identified numerous small-molecule inhibitors that target key proteins within the Hippo signalling pathway, which is highly important for the treatment of tumors.

Conclusion

This paper reviews the activation mechanisms of the Hippo signalling pathway, its crosstalk with other pathways, and potential therapeutic targets to provide new therapeutic avenues.
