Immunopharmacology Comments
The kinases MST1 and MST2 are key components of the Hippo signalling pathway. MST1/2 function has been identified as a signal-dependent amplifier of IL-2−STAT5 signalling in Treg cells that maintains immune tolerance, and to be essential for prevention of tumour resistance and autoimmunity [20]. Mst1 is required for long-lived humoral immunity [5]. The Hippo pathway also appears to couple the cellular metabolic state and immune function of CD8α+ dendritic cells, in a mechanism that progammes this dendritic cell subset to present antigens to, and selectively prime CD8+ T cells [12]. In this way, output from the Hippo signalling pathway is able to induce cytotoxic T cell responses to viruses, bacteria and tumours. Manipulating this selective dendritic cell process has implications for cancer immunotherapy, and for treating immune disorders. It can be envisioned that pharmacological agents could be developed which are able to activate CD8α+ dendritic cells, shape the adaptive immune response, and prime anti-tumour T cells.

General Comments
STK4 (MST1) is a key regulator of pancreatic β cell function and is a proapoptotic kinase in diabetogenic conditions [4]. It promotes β cell apoptosis via upregulation of the BCL-2 homology-3 (BH3)-only protein BIM. Small molecule STK4 inhbitors are being explored for potential to treat types 1 and 2 diabetes [3,13,22].
