Role of the YAP/TAZ-TEAD Transcriptional Complex in the Metabolic Control of TRAIL Sensitivity by the Mevalonate Pathway in Cancer Cells

Different studies have reported that inhibiting the mevalonate pathway with statins may increase the sensitivity of cancer cells to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), although the signaling mechanism leading to this sensitization remains largely unknown. We investigated...

We investigated the role of the YAP (Yes-associated protein)/TAZ (transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif)-TEAD (TEA/ATTS domain) transcriptional complex in the metabolic control of TRAIL sensitivity by the mevalonate pathway. We show that depleting nuclear YAP/TAZ in tumor cells, either via treatment with statins or by silencing YAP/TAZ expression with siRNAs, facilitates the activation of apoptosis by TRAIL. Furthermore, the blockage of TEAD transcriptional activity either pharmacologically or through the ectopic expression of a disruptor of the YAP/TAZ interaction with TEAD transcription factors, overcomes the resistance of tumor cells to the induction of apoptosis by TRAIL. Our results show that the mevalonate pathway controls cellular the FLICE-inhibitory protein (cFLIP) expression in tumor cells. Importantly, inhibiting the YAP/TAZ-TEAD signaling pathway induces cFLIP down-regulation, leading to a marked sensitization of tumor cells to apoptosis induction by TRAIL. Our data suggest that a combined strategy of targeting TEAD activity and selectively activating apoptosis signaling by agonists of apoptotic TRAIL receptors could be explored as a potential therapeutic approach in cancer treatment.This work was supported by grants from Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (PGC2018-093960-B-I00 and PID2021-122226NB-I00), Junta de Andalucía (PY20-00754) and the European Community through the regional development funding program (FEDER) to ALR.Peer reviewedMolecular Diversity Preservation InternationalMinisterio de Ciencia e Innovación (España)Agencia Estatal de Investigación (España)Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (España)Junta de AndalucíaEuropean CommissionMora-Molina, Rocío [0000-0001-7256-732X]López-Rivas, Abelardo [0000-0002-9351-9690]Yerbes, Rosario [0000-0002-4372-7619]Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]202420242023info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Publisher's versioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/347039https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85173897794reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
