Extracellular matrix and Hippo signaling as therapeutic targets of antifibrotic compounds for uterine fibroids

BACKGROUND: Uterine fibroids are highly prevalent, collagen‐rich, mechanically stiff, fibrotic tumors for which new therapeutic options are needed. Increased extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness activates mechanical signaling and Hippo/YAP promoting fibroid growth, but no prior studies have tested e...
