Background: Appropriate anticoagulation is crucial for the success of left ventricular assist device patients. Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal management of their subtherapeutic INR in ambulatory setting. Our goal is to evaluate both the short-term adverse events and long-term outcomes of enoxaparin bridging at a major transplant center, following the implementation of bridging safety criteria.

All-proportional solid solutions of the metal-free perovskite (Hdabco, Hhmta)(NH)(BF) ((d,h)-BF) were crystallized a mechanochemical method. Their molecular dynamics depend on the ratio with a compositional boundary at = 0.43, where Hdabco was deduced to be at a dynamic disorder state, even below phase transition temperature to a plastic crystalline phase seen at = 0.

One of the most robust synthetic lethal interactions observed in multiple functional genomic screens has been the dependency on protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) in cancer cells with MTAP deletion. We report the discovery of the clinical stage MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor AMG 193, which preferentially binds PRMT5 in the presence of MTA and has potent biochemical and cellular activity in MTAP-deleted cells across multiple cancer lineages. In vitro, PRMT5 inhibition induces DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, and aberrant alternative mRNA splicing in MTAP-deleted cells.

Article Synopsis
  • Chromosomal instability (CIN) is a common feature in aggressive cancers, such as high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), often linked to TP53 mutations.
  • Researchers discovered that KIF18A motor protein inhibitors can activate the mitotic checkpoint, causing selective death of cancer cells with CIN, especially those with TP53 mutations.
  • These inhibitors demonstrated minimal side effects on normal human bone marrow cells and showed significant tumor regression in HGSOC and TNBC models in mice, suggesting a promising targeted therapy for CIN-associated cancers.
