Alteration of TEAD1 expression levels confers apoptotic resistance through the transcriptional up-regulation of Livin.

<h4>Background</h4>TEA domain (TEAD) proteins are highly conserved transcription factors involved in embryonic development and differentiation of various tissues. More recently, emerging evidences for a contribution of these proteins towards apoptosis and cell proliferation regulation ha...
