YAP subcellular localization in hESCs and HepaRG cells on different substrate stiffness. YAP translocation in a hESCs and b HepaRG cells during culture on different substrates. Scale bars = 10 μm. c AYM and d YAP translocation (nucleus to cytoplasm) of hESCs on coverslip after being treated with Y27632 and blebbistatin. Scale bar =10 μm. ***P < 0.001. Quantitative analysis of YAP nucleus/cytoplasm ratio in e hESCs and f HepaRG cells. **< 0.01, ***< 0.001, ****< 0.0001. g Schematics of the relationships between AYM and YAP nucleus/cytoplasm ratio in response to substrate stiffness and cell-cell contact
