Defining the subcellular distribution of all human proteins and their remodeling across cellular states remains a central goal in cell biology. Here, we present a high-resolution strategy to map subcellular organization using organelle immunocapture coupled to mass spectrometry. We apply this workflow to a cell-wide collection of membranous and membraneless compartments.

Collateral sensitizers, compounds that exploit the enhanced defense mechanisms of MDR cells as weaknesses, are a proposed strategy to overcome MDR. Our previous work reported the synthesis of two novel Isoquinolinequinone (IQQ) N-oxides that induce collateral sensitivity in MDR ABCB1-overexpressing non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer cells.

Patients may be eligible for both TAVR and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), but financial realities for hospitals may affect differential access to those therapies. We sought to understand the landscape of costs and reimbursement for TAVR and SAVR in the US and to understand the association of procedural reimbursement with receipt of either.

Methods: A retrospective review by the Western Aortic Collaborative was performed of 3 different aortic centers for patients who underwent nonemergency root replacement from 2017 to 2023 with exclusion of patients who underwent more than hemiarch replacement or presented with acute or hyperacute aortic dissection.
