Model for VEGFR and Hippo signaling in angiogenesis/VM. When VEGF binds to its receptor, VEGFR, signaling through PI3K and MAPK is initiated. This leads to the inhibition of MST/LATS and subsequent activation of YAP/TAZ. YAP and TAZ induce ANG-2 and CYR61 expression, leading to enhanced angiogenesis and vasculogenic mimicry in endothelial and tumor cell lines, respectively
