Preprocessed Monomer Interfacial Polymerization for Scalable Fabrication of High-Valent Cluster-Based Metal-Organic Framework Membranes.

Current research on emergent membrane materials with ordered and stable nanoporous structures often overlooks the vital facet of manufacturing scalability. We propose the preprocessed monomer interfacial polymerization (PMIP) strategy for the scalable fabrication of high-valent cluster-based metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes with robust structures. Using a roll-to-roll device on commercial polymer supports, Zr-fum-MOF membranes are continuously processed at room temperature through the PMIP approach.

Galectin-3 Mediates Endotoxin Internalization and Caspase-4/11 Activation in Tubular Epithelials and Macrophages During Sepsis and Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury.

Besides being recognized by membrane receptor TLR4, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can also be internalized into the cytosol and activate Caspase-4/11 pyroptotic pathways to further amplify inflammation in sepsis. The objective of this study was to investigate whether Galectin-3 (Gal3) could promote the uptake of LPS by governing RAGE or administering endocytosis, consequently activating Caspase 4/11 and mediating pyroptosis in sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). By pinpointing Gal3, LPS, and EEA1 (endosome-marker) or LAMP1 (lysosome-marker) respectively, immunofluorescence discovered that Gal3 and LPS were mainly aggregated in early endosomes initially and translocated into lysosomes afterwards.
