From: NEK2 promotes the migration and proliferation of ESCC via stabilization of YAP1 by phosphorylation at Thr-143

NEK2 influenced the oncological effect of ESCC and co-existed with YAP1 in vivo. A Knockdown of NEK2 decelerated the growth rate of Eca-109 in vivo. B Lv-NEK2 group had a compromised manifestation in average radiant efficiency and size than those in the Lv-Con group in vivo imaging. C Knockdown of NEK2 reduced the tumorigenesis of Eca-109 presented in size and weight. D The decreased NEK2 was accompanied by reduced expression and nucleus shuffling of YAP1 by IHC staining. E The downregulated expression of NEK2 simultaneously manifested with less expression and nucleus shuffling of YAP1 by IF imaging. *P < 0.05; IHC immunohistochemistry; IF immunofluorescence
