      • Abstract

      Background:
      At present, limited data exist on the spectrum of resistance mechanisms in ROS1-positive lung cancer. The Hippo-YAP pathway has been recently implicated in the acquisition of drug resistance in anti-cancer therapy, Yes-associated protein (YAP) is a main mediator of the Hippo pathway, but no data are available about Hippo-YAP pathway in ROS1-positive lung cancer. In this study, we evaluated the expression of YAP in non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) tissues, we also investigated the role of YAP in primary and crizotinib-resistant cell lines.


      Method:
      Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of YAP and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) proteins was performed on tissue sections from 200 NSCLCs. Correlations between the expression of the above proteins and clinicopathologic features and prognostic significance were analyzed. Crizotinib -resistant cells (HCC78CR) were established using crizotinib -na
