Esophageal cancer is one of the leading malignancies worldwide, while around sixty percent of newly diagnosed cases are in China. In recent years, genome-wide sequencing studies and cancer biology studies show that Hippo signaling functions a critical role in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) progression, which could be a promising therapeutic targets in ESCC treatment. However, the detailed mechanisms of Hippo signaling dys-regulation in ESCC remain not clear. Here we identify SHARPIN protein as an endogenous inhibitor for YAP protein. SHARPIN depletion significantly decreases cell migration and invasion capacity in ESCC, which effects could be rescued by further YAP depletion. Depletion SHARPIN increases YAP protein level and YAP/TEAD target genes, such as CTGF and CYR61 in ESCC. Immuno-precipitation assay shows that SHARPIN associates with YAP, promoting YAP degradation possibly via inducing YAP K48-dependent poly-ubiquitination. Our study reveals a novel post-translational mechanism in modulating Hippo signaling in ESCC. Overexpression or activation of SHARPIN could be a promising strategy to target Hippo signaling for ESCC patients.
