Similarly, in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells, the YAP-induced lncRNA THAP9-AS1 stimulated YAP signaling activation by sponging miR-484 and binding to the YAP protein to inhibit LATS1-mediated YAP phosphorylation, eventually enhancing YAP expression at both the posttranscriptional and posttranslational levels [147]. This evidence concerns the gene YAP1 and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
