The Hippo-YAP pathway regulates organ size by modulating cell proliferation and
apoptosis. Yu et al. now reveal that G-protein-coupled receptors act upstream of the
transcriptional coactivators YAP/TAZ. This study reinforces the connection between the actin
cytoskeleton and Hippo pathway activity and identifies a class of secreted extracellular
regulators of YAP/TAZ activity.
