Active YAP (red cells) regulates liver size through hepatocyte proliferation (left; Previous work). In this study, we showed that active YAP selectively eliminates damaged hepatocytes (right). Hepatocytes expressing activated YAP in the presence of liver injury such as ethanol migrate into sinusoids, undergo apoptosis and are engulfed by Kupffer cells (blue).
