Mst1-Hippo pathway triggers breast cancer apoptosis via inducing mitochondrial fragmentation in a manner dependent on JNK–Drp1 axis

Mst1-Hippo pathway and mitochondrial fragmentation participate in the progression of several types of cancers. However, their roles in breast cancer requires investigation. The aim of our study is to determine whether Mst1 overexpression regulates the viability of breast cancer cells via modulating mitochondrial fragmentation
