Description of the different phenotypes resulting from YAP activation in mice.
| Mice | Liver defects | Liver tumorigenesis | Reference |
| Double transgenic LAP1/tTA-YAP S127A | Hepatocyte proliferation and increased liver size after activation of an inducible YAP transgene (reversible effect) | ā | [50] |
| Double transgenic ApoE/rtTA-YAP | Hepatocytes are resistant to Fas-mediated apoptosis | Lethal HCCs | [48] |
| Albumin-Cre YAP c/c | Increased liver size Defects in hepatocyte survival and bile duct development severely impaired | ā | [22] |
