Effects of the Substrate on Interfacial Polymerization: Tuning the Hydrophobicity via Polyelectrolyte Deposition

Membranes, 2020
Interfacial polymerization (IP) has been the key method for the fabrication of the thin film composite (TFC) membranes that are extensively employed in reverse osmosis (RO) and forward osmosis (FO).

A Micropeptide Component of the OGDH Complex Modulates ATP Production in the TCA Cycle

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified a mitochondrial micropeptide encoded by a non‐canonical open reading frame (alt‐ORF) within the CTSB gene. This micropeptide named APPM (ATP production‐promoting micropeptide) is a novel component of the OGDHc complex in the TCA cycle. APPM localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and directly binds to OGDH, the E1 subunit of

MOF‐Derived Cu‐TiO2/Alginate Micromotors for Buoyancy‐Regulated 3D Motion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, cyanobacteria‐inspired sodium alginate (SA)/Cu‐TiO2/Fe3O4 hydrogel micromotors generate and encapsulate O2 microvesicles upon light irradiation, enabling buoyancy‐mediated Z‐axis upward migration and surface enrichment at the light‐exposed water‐air surface.

Prion‐Like Protein LENG8‐Mediated Nucleation Drives Stress Granule Assembly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LENG8 is a newly identified stress granule (SG) nucleator required for SG assembly. Following stress, nuclear LENG8 granules disassemble, allowing LENG8 to translocate into the cytoplasm and form independent nucleation foci. These foci fuse with canonical early G3BP1/TIA1 seeds via LENG8‐TIA1 binding to drive SG maturation.

NCOA4 Accelerates Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Formation by Regulating Macrophage Activation and Ferroptosis via STAT1–CH25H Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under pathological stimulation, NCOA4 in macrophages interacts with STAT1 to promote CH25H transcription. The subsequent increase in 25‐HC production activates macrophages, triggers inflammatory responses and ferroptosis, and accelerates the progression of AAA.
