Its dysregulation is profoundly implicated in various forms of cancer, making it a highly promising target for therapeutic intervention. This review extensively evaluates the mechanisms underlying the dysregulation of the Hippo pathway in cancer cells and the molecular processes linking these alterations to tumorigenesis. Under normal physiological conditions, the Hippo pathway is a guardian, ensuring controlled cellular proliferation and programmed cell death. However, numerous mutations and epigenetic modifications can disrupt this equilibrium in cancer cells, leading to unchecked cell proliferation, enhanced survival, and metastatic capabilities. The pathway's interaction with other critical signaling networks, including Wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/Akt, TGF-β/SMAD, and EGFR pathways, further amplifies its oncogenic potential. Central to these disruptions is the activation of YAP and TAZ transcriptional coactivators, which drive the expression of genes that promote oncogenesis. This review delves into the molecular mechanisms responsible for the dysregulation of the Hippo pathway in cancer, elucidating how these disruptions contribute to tumorigenesis. We also explore potential therapeutic strategies, including inhibitors targeting YAP/TAZ activity and modulators of upstream signaling components. Despite significant advancements in understanding the Hippo pathway's role in cancer, numerous questions remain unresolved. Continued research is imperative to unravel the complex interactions within this pathway and to develop innovative and effective therapies for clinical application. In conclusion, the comprehensive understanding of the Hippo pathway's regulatory mechanisms offers significant potential for advancing cancer therapies, regenerative medicine, and treatments for chronic diseases.

In this study, we deciphered the relationship among cell adhesion and oxylipins in Xylella fastidiosa subsp. fastidiosa (Temecula1 strain) and subsp. multiplex (AlmaEM3 strain). The role of the PD0744 gene, encoding for XadA2, a non-fimbrial adhesin belonging to the trimeric autotransporter family, probably involved in the surface attachment required in the initial phase of biofilm formation was investigated. PD0744 deletion mutants in two X. fastidiosa strains were generated, through homologous recombination, and the impact of its deletion on bacterial lifestyle was assessed.

This review article details the applicability of CRISPR/Cas9 as a modern gene editing tool in case of NTD parasites such as trypanosomatids with an aim to target their virulent genes. It has been observed through a number of studies that knocking in/out virulent genes of these parasites have led to a significant decrease in infectivity, growth rates along with morphological defects.
