Abstract
Coxiella burnetii (C. burnetii) is the causative agent of Q fever, a zoonotic disease. Intracellular replication of C. burnetii requires the maturation of a phagolysosome-like compartment known as the replication permissive Coxiella-containing vacuole (CCV). Effector proteins secreted by the Dot/Icm secretion system are indispensable for maturation of a single large CCV by facilitating the fusion of promiscuous vesicles. However, the mechanisms of CCV maintenance and evasion of host cell clearance remain to be defined. Here, we show that C. burnetii secreted Coxiella vacuolar protein E (CvpE) contributes to CCV biogenesis by inducing lysosome-like vacuole (LLV) enlargement. LLV fission by tubulation and autolysosome degradation is impaired in CvpE-expressing cells. Subsequently, we found that CvpE suppresses lysosomal Ca2+ channel transient receptor potential channel mucolipin 1 (TRPML1) activity in an indirect manner, in which CvpE binds phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] and perturbs PIKfyve activity in lysosomes. Finally, the agonist of TRPML1, ML-SA5, inhibits CCV biogenesis and C. burnetii replication. These results provide insight into the mechanisms of CCV maintenance by CvpE and suggest that the agonist of TRPML1 can be a novel potential treatment that does not rely on antibiotics for Q fever by enhancing Coxiella-containing vacuoles (CCVs) fission.

Abstract
Transient Receptor Potential Mucolipin 1 (TRPML1) is a lysosomal cation channel whose loss-of-function mutations directly cause the lysosomal storage disorder mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV). TRPML1 can be allosterically regulated by various ligands including natural lipids and small synthetic molecules and the channel undergoes a global movement propagated from ligand-induced local conformational changes upon activation. In this study, we identified a functionally critical residue, Tyr404, at the C-terminus of the S4 helix, whose mutations to tryptophan and alanine yield gain- and loss-of-function channels, respectively. These allosteric mutations mimic the ligand activation or inhibition of the TRPML1 channel without interfering with ligand binding and both mutant channels are susceptible to agonist or antagonist modulation, making them better targets for screening potent TRPML1 activators and inhibitors. We also determined the high-resolution structure of TRPML1 in complex with the PI(4,5)P2 inhibitor, revealing the structural basis underlying this lipid inhibition. In addition, an endogenous phospholipid likely from sphingomyelin is identified in the PI(4,5)P2-bound TRPML1 structure at the same hotspot for agonists and antagonists, providing a plausible structural explanation for the inhibitory effect of sphingomyelin on agonist activation.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets-based membranes, which have controlled 2D nano-confined channels, are highly desirable for molecular/ionic sieving and confined reactions. However, it is still difficult to develop an efficient method to prepare large-area membranes with high stability, high orientation, and accurately adjustable interlayer spacing. Here, we present a strategy to produce metal ion cross-linked membranes with precisely controlled 2D nano-confined channels and high stability in different solutions using superspreading shear-flow-induced assembly strategy. For example, membranes based on graphene oxide (GO) exhibit interlayer spacing ranging from 8.0±0.1 Å to 10.3±0.2 Å, with a precision of down to 1 Å. At the same time, the value of the orientation order parameter (f) of GO membranes is up to 0.95 and GO membranes exhibit superb stability in different solutions. The strategy we present, which can be generalized to the preparation of 2D nano-confined channels based on a variety of 2D materials, will expand the application scope and provide better performances of membranes.

Abstract
Sub-nanoporous membranes with ion selective transport functions are important for energy utilization, environmental remediation, and fundamental bioinspired engineering. Although mono/multivalent ions can be separated by monovalent ion selective membranes (MISMs), the current theory fails to inspire rapid advances in MISMs. Here, we apply transition state theory (TST) by regulating the enthalpy barrier (ΔH) and entropy barrier (ΔS) for designing next-generation monovalent cation exchange membranes (MCEMs) with great improvement in ion selective separation. Using a molecule-absorbed porous material as an interlayer to construct a denser selective layer can achieve a greater absolute value of ΔS for Li+ and Mg2+ transport, greater ΔH for Mg2+ transport and lower ΔH for Li+ transport. This recorded performance with a Li+/Mg2+ perm-selectivity of 25.50 and a Li+ flux of 1.86 mol ⋅ m-2 ⋅ h-1 surpasses the contemporary "upper bound" plot for Li+/Mg2+ separations. Most importantly, our synthesized MCEM also demonstrates excellent operational stability during the selective electrodialysis (S-ED) processes for realizing scalability in practical applications.

Abstract
2D nanosheets such as graphene oxide (GO) can be stacked to construct membranes with fine-tuned nanochannels to achieve molecular sieving ability. These membranes are often thin to achieve high water permeance, but their fabrication with consistent nanostructures on a large scale presents an enormous challenge. Herein, GO-based hollow fiber membranes (HFMs) are developed for dye desalination by synergistically combining chemical etching to form in-plane nanopores (10-30 nm) to increase water permeance and polyamine functionalization to improve underwater stability and enable facile large-scale production using existing membrane manufacturing processes. HFM modules with areas of 88 cm2 and GO layer thicknesses of ≈500 nm are fabricated, and they exhibited a stable dye water permeance of 75 L m-2 h-1 bar-1, rejection of >99.5% for Direct red and Congo red, and Na2SO4/dye separation factor of 300-500, superior to state-of-the-art commercial membranes. The versatility of this approach is also demonstrated using different short polyamines and porous substrates. This study reveals a scalable way of designing 2D materials into high-performance robust membranes for practical applications.

Abstract
Efficient 2D membranes play a critical role in water purification and desalination. However, most 2D membranes, such as graphene oxide (GO) membranes, tend to swell or disintegrate in liquid, making precise ionic sieving a tough challenge. Herein, the fabrication of the polyoxometalate clusters (PW12) intercalated reduced graphene oxide (rGO) membrane (rGO-PW12) is reported through a polyoxometalate-assisted in situ photoreduction strategy. The intercalated PW12 result in the interlayer spacing in the sub-nanometer scale and induce a nanoconfinement effect to repel the ions in various salt solutions. The permeation rate of rGO-PW12 membranes are about two orders of magnitude lower than those through the GO membrane. The confinement of nanochannels also generate the excellent non-swelling stability of rGO-PW12 membranes in aqueous solutions up to 400 h. Moreover, when applied in forward osmosis, the rGO-PW12 membranes with a thickness of 90 nm not only exhibit a high-water permeance of up to 0.11790 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 and high NaCl rejection (98.3%), but also reveal an ultrahigh water/salt selectivity of 4740. Such significantly improved ion-exclusion ability and high-water flux benefit from the multi-interactions and nanoconfinement effect between PW12 and rGO nanosheets, which afford a well-interlinked lamellar structure via hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions.

Abstract
MCOLN1/TRPML1 is a nonselective cationic channel specifically localized to the late endosome and lysosome. With its property of mediating the release of several divalent cations such as Ca2+, Zn2+ and Fe2+ from the lysosome to the cytosol, MCOLN1 plays a pivotal role in regulating a variety of cellular events including endocytosis, exocytosis, lysosomal biogenesis, lysosome reformation, and especially in Macroautophagy/autophagy. Autophagy is a highly conserved catabolic process that maintains cytoplasmic integrity by removing superfluous proteins and damaged organelles. Acting as the terminal compartments, lysosomes are crucial for the completion of the autophagy process. This review delves into the emerging role of MCOLN1 in controlling the autophagic process by regulating lysosomal ionic homeostasis, thereby governing the fundamental functions of lysosomes. Furthermore, this review summarizes the physiological relevance as well as molecular mechanisms through which MCOLN1 orchestrates autophagy, consequently influencing mitochondria turnover, cell apoptosis and migration. In addition, we have illustrated the implications of MCOLN1-regulated autophagy in the pathological process of cancer and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. In summary, given the involvement of MCOLN1-mediated autophagy in the pathogenesis of cancer and myocardial I/R injury, targeting MCOLN1 May provide clues for developing new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these diseases. Exploring the regulation of MCOLN1-mediated autophagy in diverse diseases contexts will surely broaden our understanding of this pathway and offer its potential as a promising drug target.Abbreviation: CCCP:carbonyl cyanide3-chlorophenylhydrazone; CQ:chloroquine; HCQ: hydroxychloroquine;I/R: ischemia-reperfusion; MAP1LC3/LC3:microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3; MCOLN1/TRPML1:mucolipin TRP cation channel 1; MLIV: mucolipidosis type IV; MTORC1:MTOR complex 1; ROS: reactive oxygenspecies; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases, a group of debilitating disorders, have garnered increasing attention due to their escalating prevalence, particularly among aging populations. Alzheimer's disease (AD) reigns as a prominent exemplar within this category, distinguished by its relentless progression of cognitive impairment and the accumulation of aberrant protein aggregates within the intricate landscape of the brain. While the intricate pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases has been the subject of extensive investigation, recent scientific inquiry has unveiled a novel player in this complex scenario-transient receptor potential mucolipin 1 (TRPML1) channels. This comprehensive review embarks on an exploration of the intricate interplay between TRPML1 channels and neurodegenerative diseases, with an explicit spotlight on Alzheimer's disease. It immerses itself in the intricate molecular mechanisms governing TRPML1 channel functionality and elucidates their profound implications for the well-being of neurons. Furthermore, the review ventures into the realm of therapeutic potential, pondering the possibilities and challenges associated with targeting TRPML1 channels as a promising avenue for the amelioration of neurodegenerative disorders. As we traverse this multifaceted terrain of neurodegeneration and the enigmatic role of TRPML1 channels, we embark on a journey that not only broadens our understanding of the intricate machinery governing neuronal health but also holds promise for the development of innovative therapeutic interventions in the relentless battle against neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The endomembrane system consists of organellar membranes in the biosynthetic pathway [endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, and secretory vesicles] as well as those in the degradative pathway (early endosomes, macropinosomes, phagosomes, autophagosomes, late endosomes, and lysosomes). These endomembrane organelles/vesicles work together to synthesize, modify, package, transport, and degrade proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids, regulating the balance between cellular anabolism and catabolism. Large ion concentration gradients exist across endomembranes: Ca2+ gradients for most endomembrane organelles and H+ gradients for the acidic compartments. Ion (Na+, K+, H+, Ca2+, and Cl-) channels on the organellar membranes control ion flux in response to cellular cues, allowing rapid informational exchange between the cytosol and organelle lumen. Recent advances in organelle proteomics, organellar electrophysiology, and luminal and juxtaorganellar ion imaging have led to molecular identification and functional characterization of about two dozen endomembrane ion channels. For example, whereas IP3R1-3 channels mediate Ca2+ release from the ER in response to neurotransmitter and hormone stimulation, TRPML1-3 and TMEM175 channels mediate lysosomal Ca2+ and H+ release, respectively, in response to nutritional and trafficking cues. This review aims to summarize the current understanding of these endomembrane channels, with a focus on their subcellular localizations, ion permeation properties, gating mechanisms, cell biological functions, and disease relevance.

Abstract
The increasing requirements for wearable and portable electronics are driving the interests of high performance fiber supercapacitor. Layered double hydroxide (LDH) is broadly used in electrode materials, owing to the adjustability of components and the unique lamellar structure. However, limited active sites and poor electrical conductivity hinder its applications. Herein, the core-shell heterostructured Ni(OH)2@activation Zn-Co-Ni layered double hydroxides (Ni(OH)2@A-ZnCoNi-LDH) electrode was fabricated by loading pseudocapacitance material on the A-ZnCoNi-LDH to improve the electrochemical performance. Significantly, benefits from the synergistic effect of the multi-metal ions and the core-shell heterostructure, the electrodes demonstrated a capacitance of 2405 mF·cm-2 at 1 mA·cm-2. Furthermore, Ni(OH)2@A-ZnCoNi-LDH was used as the core electrode and carbon nanotube (CNT) film coated with Fe2O3@reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was wrapped around the core electrode to assemble coaxial fiber asymmetric supercapacitor, which illustrated an ultrahigh energy density of 177.7 µWh·cm-2 at 0.75 mW·cm-2. In particular, after consecutive charging and discharging 7000 cycles, the capacitance retention of the device was 95 %, indicating the excellent cycling stability. Furthermore, the device with high flexibility can be woven into textiles in different shapes. The fabricated device has an excellent development prospect as an energy source in wearable electronic devices.

Abstract
Two-pore channels and TRP mucolipins are ubiquitous endo-lysosomal cation channels of pathophysiological relevance. Both are Ca2+-permeable and regulated by phosphoinositides, principally PI(3,5)P2. Accumulating evidence has uncovered synergistic channel activation by PI(3,5)P2 and endogenous metabolites such as the Ca2+ mobilizing messenger NAADP, synthetic agonists including approved drugs and physical cues such as voltage and osmotic pressure. Here, we provide an overview of this coordination.

Abstract
The permeability and selectivity of biological and artificial ion channels correlate with the specific hydration structure of single ions. However, fundamental understanding of the effect of ion-ion interaction remains elusive. Here, via non-contact atomic force microscopy measurements, we demonstrate that hydrated alkali metal cations (Na+ and K+) at charged surfaces could come into close contact with each other through partial dehydration and water rearrangement processes, forming one-dimensional chain structures. We prove that the interplay at the nanoscale between the water-ion and water-water interaction can lead to an effective ion-ion attraction overcoming the ionic Coulomb repulsion. The tendency for different ions to become closely packed follows the sequence K+ > Na+ > Li+, which is attributed to their different dehydration energies and charge densities. This work highlights the key role of water molecules in prompting close packing and concerted movement of ions at charged surfaces, which may provide new insights into the mechanism of ion transport under atomic confinement.

Abstract
Mutations in the PKD2 gene, which encodes the polycystin-2 (PC2, also called TRPP2) protein, lead to autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). As a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channel superfamily, PC2 functions as a non-selective cation channel. The activation and regulation of the PC2 channel are largely unknown, and direct binding of small-molecule ligands to this channel has not been reported. In this work, we found that most known small-molecule agonists of the mucolipin TRP (TRPML) channels inhibit the activity of the PC2_F604P, a gain-of-function mutant of the PC2 channel. However, two of them, ML-SA1 and SF-51, have dual regulatory effects, with low concentration further activating PC2_F604P, and high concentration leading to inactivation of the channel. With two cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures, a molecular docking model, and mutagenesis results, we identified two distinct binding sites of ML-SA1 in PC2_F604P that are responsible for activation and inactivation, respectively. These results provide structural and functional insights into how ligands regulate PC2 channel function through unusual mechanisms and may help design compounds that are more efficient and specific in regulating the PC2 channel and potentially also for ADPKD treatment.

Abstract
Membrane consisting of ordered sub-nanochannels has been pursued in ion separation technology to achieve applications including desalination, environment management, and energy conversion. However, high-precision ion separation has not yet been achieved owing to the lack of deep understanding of ion transport mechanism in confined environments. Biological ion channels can conduct ions with ultrahigh permeability and selectivity, which is inseparable from the important role of channel size and "ion-channel" interaction. Here, inspired by the biological systems, we report the high-precision separation of monovalent and divalent cations in functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes (UiO-66-(X)2, X = NH2, SH, OH and OCH3). We find that the functional group (X) and size of the MOF sub-nanochannel synergistically regulate the ion binding affinity and dehydration process, which is the key in enlarging the transport activation energy difference between target and interference ions to improve the separation performance. The K+/Mg2+ selectivity of the UiO-66-(OCH3)2 membrane reaches as high as 1567.8. This work provides a gateway to the understanding of ion transport mechanism and development of high-precision ion separation membranes.

Abstract
The utilization of sustained and green energy is believed to alleviate increasing menace of global environmental concerns and energy dilemma. Interfacial assembly of 2D graphene-derived ion channels (2D-GDICs) with tunable ion/fluid transport behavior enables efficient harvesting of renewable green energy from ubiquitous water, especially for osmotic energy harvesting. In this review, various interfacial assembly strategies for fabricating diverse 2D-GDICs are summarized and their ion transport properties are discussed. This review analyzes how particular structure and charge density/distribution of 2D-GDIC can be modulated to minimize internal resistance of ion/fluid transport and enhance energy conversion efficiency, and highlights stimuli-responsive functions and stability of 2D-GDIC and further examines the possibility of integrating 2D-GDIC with other energy conversion systems. Notably, the presented preparation and applications of 2D-GDIC also inspire and guide other 2D materials to fabricate sophisticated ion channels for targeted applications. Finally, potential challenges in this field is analyzed and a prospect to future developments toward high-performance or large-scale real-word applications is offered.

Abstract
Membranes with ultrafast molecular separation ability in organic solvents can offer unprecedented opportunities for efficient and low-cost solvent recovery in industry. Herein, a graphene-like polymer carbon nitride nanosheet (PCNN) with a low-friction surface was applied as the main membrane building block to boost the ultrafast transport of the solvent. Meanwhile, inspired by the concept of "couple hardness with softness", soft and flexible graphene oxide (GO) was chosen to fix the random stack of the rigid PCNN and tailor the lamellar structure of the PCNN membrane. The optimal PCNN/GO lamellar membrane shows a remarkable methanol permeance of 435.5 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 (four times higher than that of the GO membrane) while maintaining a high rejection for reactive black (RB, 98.9% in ethanol). Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to elucidate the ultrafast transport mechanism of the PCNN/GO membrane. This study reveals that PCNN is a promising building block for lamellar membranes and may open up new avenues for high-performance molecular separation membranes.

Abstract
The Dja2 knockout (Dja2-/- ) mice had respiratory distress, and >60% died within 2 days after birth. The surviving adult Dja2-/- mice were infertile and the lungs of Dja2-/- mice showed several abnormalities, including the processing defect of prosurfactant protein C in the alveolar epithelial type II cells and the accumulation of glycolipids in enlarged alveolar macrophages. The luminal pH of acidic organelles in Dja2-/- cells was shifted to pH 5.37-5.45. This deviated pH was immediately restored to control levels (pH 4.56-4.65) by the addition of a diuretic, ethyl isopropyl amiloride (EIPA). Although the role of DJA2 in maintaining the pH homeostasis of lysosome-related organelles is currently obscure, this rapid and remarkable pH resilience is best explained by an EIPA-sensitive proton efflux machinery that is disorganized and overactivated due to the loss of Dja2.

Wible DJ, Parikh Z, Cho EJ, Chen MD, Jeter CR, Mukhopadhyay S, Dalby KN, Varadarajan S, Bratton SB. Unexpected inhibition of the lipid kinase PIKfyve reveals an epistatic role for p38 MAPKs in endolysosomal fission and volume control. Cell Death Dis 2024; 15:80. [PMID: 38253602 PMCID: PMC10803372 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-024-06423-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) participate in autophagic signaling; and previous reports suggest that pyridinyl imidazole p38 MAPK inhibitors, including SB203580 and SB202190, induce cell death in some cancer cell-types through unrestrained autophagy. Subsequent studies, however, have suggested that the associated cytoplasmic vacuolation resulted from off-target inhibition of an unidentified enzyme. Herein, we report that SB203580-induced vacuolation is rapid, reversible, and relies on the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PIK3C3) complex and the production of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] but not on autophagy per se. Rather, vacuolation resulted from the accumulation of Rab7 on late endosome and lysosome (LEL) membranes, combined with an osmotic imbalance that triggered severe swelling in these organelles. Inhibition of PIKfyve, the lipid kinase that converts PI(3)P to PI(3,5)P2 on LEL membranes, produced a similar phenotype in cells; therefore, we performed in vitro kinase assays and discovered that both SB203580 and SB202190 directly inhibited recombinant PIKfyve. Cancer cells treated with either drug likewise displayed significant reductions in the endogenous levels of PI(3,5)P2. Despite these results, SB203580-induced vacuolation was not entirely due to off-target inhibition of PIKfyve, as a drug-resistant p38α mutant suppressed vacuolation; and combined genetic deletion of both p38α and p38β dramatically sensitized cells to established PIKfyve inhibitors, including YM201636 and apilimod. The rate of vacuole dissolution (i.e., LEL fission), following the removal of apilimod, was also significantly reduced in cells treated with BIRB-796, a structurally unrelated p38 MAPK inhibitor. Thus, our studies indicate that pyridinyl imidazole p38 MAPK inhibitors induce cytoplasmic vacuolation through the combined inhibition of both PIKfyve and p38 MAPKs, and more generally, that p38 MAPKs act epistatically to PIKfyve, most likely to promote LEL fission.

Channels (Austin) 2023; 17:2212349.

Abstract
Structural evidence and much experimental data have demonstrated the presence of non-canonical helical substructures (π and 310) in regions of great functional relevance both in TRP as in Kv channels. Through an exhaustive compositional analysis of the sequences underlying these substructures, we find that each of them is associated with characteristic local flexibility profiles, which in turn are implicated in significant conformational rearrangements and interactions with specific ligands. We found that α-to-π helical transitions are associated with patterns of local rigidity whereas α-to-310 transitions are mainly leagued with high local flexibility profiles. We also study the relationship between flexibility and protein disorder in the transmembrane domain of these proteins. By contrasting these two parameters, we located regions showing a sort of structural discrepancy between these similar but not identical protein attributes. Notably, these regions are presumably implicated in important conformational rearrangements during the gating in those channels. In that sense, finding these regions where flexibility and disorder are not proportional allows us to detect regions with potential functional dynamism. From this point of view, we highlighted some conformational rearrangements that occur during ligand binding events, the compaction, and refolding of the outer pore loops in several TRP channels, as well as the well-known S4 motion in Kv channels.

Abstract
Dysfunction of lysosomes, the primary hydrolytic organelles in animal cells, is frequently associated with aging and age-related diseases. At the cellular level, lysosomal dysfunction is strongly linked to cellular senescence or the induction of cell death pathways. However, the precise mechanisms by which lysosomal dysfunction participates in these various cellular or organismal phenotypes have remained elusive. The ability of lysosomes to degrade diverse macromolecules including damaged proteins and organelles puts lysosomes at the center of multiple cellular stress responses. Lysosomal activity is tightly regulated by many coordinated cellular processes including pathways that function inside and outside of the organelle. Here, we collectively classify these coordinated pathways as the lysosomal processing and adaptation system (LYPAS). We review evidence that the LYPAS is upregulated by diverse cellular stresses, its adaptability regulates senescence and cell death decisions, and it can form the basis for therapeutic manipulation for a wide range of age-related diseases and potentially for aging itself.

Abstract
Impaired iron homeostasis has been proven to be one of the critical contributors to the pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD). Ferritin is considered an intracellular protein responsible for storing cytosolic iron. Recent studies have found that ferritin can be secreted from cells independent of the classical endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi system. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the secretion of ferritin in the brain were not elucidated. In the present study, we demonstrated that the primary cultured astrocytes do have the ability to secrete ferritin, which is enhanced by iron treatment. Increased ferritin secretion was accompanied by increased protein expression of ferritin response to iron stimulation. Further study showed that iron-induced expression and secretion of ferritin could be inhibited by CQ or 3-MA pretreatment. In addition, the knockdown of transient receptor potential mucolipin 1 (TRPML1) antagonized iron-induced ferritin secretion, accompanied by further increased intracellular protein levels of ferritin. Further study demonstrated that ferritin colocalized with LAMP1 in iron-treated astrocytes. On the contrary, ras-associated protein 27a (Rab27a) knockdown further enhanced iron-induced ferritin secretion and decreased intracellular protein levels of ferritin. Furthermore, we also showed that the secretory autophagy protein tripartite motif containing 16 (TRIM16) and sec22b decreased in iron-treated astrocytes. These results suggested that astrocytes might secrete ferritin via TRPML1-mediated exocytosis. This provides new evidence for the mechanisms underlying the secretion of ferritin in primary cultured astrocytes under a high iron environment.

Abstract
Regulating ion transport behavior through pore size variation is greatly attractive for membrane to meet the need for precise separation, but fabricating nanofiltration (NF) membranes with tunable pore size remains a huge challenge. Herein, a NF membrane with electrically tunable pores was fabricated by intercalating polypyrrole into reduced graphene oxide interlayers. As the potential switches from reduction to oxidation, the membrane pore size shrinks by 11%, resulting in a 16.2% increase in salt rejection. The membrane pore size expands/contracts at redox potentials due to the polypyrrole volume swelling/shrinking caused by the insertion/desertion of cations, respectively. In terms of the inserted cation, Na+ and K+ induce larger pore-size stretching range for the membrane than Ca2+ due to greater binding energy and larger doping amount. Such an electrical response characteristic remained stable after multiple cycles and enabled application in ion selective separation; e.g., the Na+/Mg2+ separation factor in the reduced state is increased by 41% compared to that in the oxide state. This work provides electrically tunable nanochannels for high-precision separation applications such as valuable substance purification and resource recovery from wastewater.

Abstract
Lysosomes are essential catabolic organelles with an acidic lumen and dozens of hydrolytic enzymes. The detrimental consequences of lysosomal leakage have been well known since lysosomes were discovered during the 1950s. However, detailed knowledge of lysosomal quality control mechanisms has only emerged relatively recently. It is now clear that lysosomal leakage triggers multiple lysosomal quality control pathways that replace, remove, or directly repair damaged lysosomes. Here, we review how lysosomal damage is sensed and resolved in mammalian cells, with a focus on the molecular mechanisms underlying different lysosomal quality control pathways. We also discuss the clinical implications and therapeutic potential of these pathways.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are sensors for a variety of cellular and environmental signals. Mammals express a total of 28 different TRP channel proteins, which can be divided into seven subfamilies based on amino acid sequence homology: TRPA (Ankyrin), TRPC (Canonical), TRPM (Melastatin), TRPML (Mucolipin), TRPN (NO-mechano-potential, NOMP), TRPP (Polycystin), TRPV (Vanilloid). They are a class of ion channels found in numerous tissues and cell types and are permeable to a wide range of cations such as Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, and others. TRP channels are responsible for various sensory responses including heat, cold, pain, stress, vision and taste and can be activated by a number of stimuli. Their predominantly location on the cell surface, their interaction with numerous physiological signaling pathways, and the unique crystal structure of TRP channels make TRPs attractive drug targets and implicate them in the treatment of a wide range of diseases. Here, we review the history of TRP channel discovery, summarize the structures and functions of the TRP ion channel family, and highlight the current understanding of the role of TRP channels in the pathogenesis of human disease. Most importantly, we describe TRP channel-related drug discovery, therapeutic interventions for diseases and the limitations of targeting TRP channels in potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Pristine graphene oxide (GO)-based membranes have proven promising for molecular and ion separation owing to efficient molecular transport nanochannels, but their separation ability in an aqueous environment is limited by the natural swelling tendency of GO. To obtain a novel membrane with anti-swelling behavior and remarkable desalination capability, we used the Al2O3 tubular membrane with an average pore size of 20 nm as the substrate and fabricated several GO nanofiltration ceramic membranes with different interlayer structures and surface charges by fine-tuning the pH of the GO-EDA membrane-forming suspension (pH = 7, 9, 11). The resultant membranes could maintain desalination stability, whether immersed in water for 680 h or operated under a high-pressure environment. When the pH of the membrane-forming suspension was 11, the prepared GE-11 membrane showed a rejection of 91.5% (measured at 5 bar) towards 1 mM Na2SO4 after soaking in water for 680 h. An increase in the transmembrane pressure to 20 bar resulted in an increase in the rejection towards the 1 mM Na2SO4 solution to 96.3%, and an increase in the permeance to 3.7 L·m-2·h-1·bar-1. The proposed strategy in varying charge repulsion is beneficial to the future development of GO-derived nanofiltration ceramic membranes.

Abstract
Macropinocytosis is defined as an actin-dependent but coat- and dynamin-independent endocytic uptake process, which generates large intracellular vesicles (macropinosomes) containing a non-selective sampling of extracellular fluid. Macropinocytosis provides an important mechanism of immune surveillance by dendritic cells and macrophages, but also serves as an essential nutrient uptake pathway for unicellular organisms and tumor cells. This review examines the cell biological mechanisms that drive macropinocytosis, as well as the complex signaling pathways - GTPases, lipid and protein kinases and phosphatases, and actin regulatory proteins - that regulate macropinosome formation, internalization, and disposition.

Abstract
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) regulate early endocytic trafficking, but their effects on late endocytic trafficking remain unclear. Herein, we report that the pyridinyl imidazole p38 MAPK inhibitors, SB203580 and SB202190, induce a rapid but reversible Rab7-dependent accumulation of large cytoplasmic vacuoles. While SB203580 did not induce canonical autophagy, phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] accumulated on vacuole membranes, and inhibition of the class III PI3-kinase (PIK3C3/VPS34) suppressed vacuolation. Ultimately, vacuolation resulted from the fusion of ER/Golgi-derived membrane vesicles with late endosomes and lysosomes (LELs), combined with an osmotic imbalance in LELs that led to severe swelling and a decrease in LEL fission. Since PIKfyve inhibitors induce a similar phenotype by preventing the conversion of PI(3)P to PI(3,5)P2, we performed in vitro kinase assays and found that PIKfyve activity was unexpectedly inhibited by SB203580 and SB202190, corresponding to losses in endogenous PI(3,5)P2 levels in treated cells. However, vacuolation was not entirely due to 'off-target' inhibition of PIKfyve by SB203580, as a drug-resistant p38α mutant suppressed vacuolation. Moreover, genetic deletion of both p38α and p38β rendered cells dramatically more sensitive to PIKfyve inhibitors, including YM201636 and apilimod. In subsequent 'washout' experiments, the rate of vacuole dissolution upon the removal of apilimod was also significantly reduced in cells treated with BIRB-796, a structurally unrelated p38 MAPK inhibitor. Thus, p38 MAPKs act epistatically to PIKfyve to promote LEL fission; and pyridinyl imidazole p38 MAPK inhibitors induce cytoplasmic vacuolation through the combined inhibition of both PIKfyve and p38 MAPKs.

Abstract
The nanofiltration (NF) membranes with the specific separation accuracy for molecules with the size of 0.5-2 nm have been applied in various industries. However, the traditional polymeric NF membranes still face problems like the trade-off effect, organic solvent consumption, and weak durability in harsh conditions. The participation of coordination action or metal-organic coordination compounds (MOCs) brings the membrane with uniform pores, better antifouling properties, and high hydrophilicity. Some of the aqueous-phase reactions also help to introduce a green fabrication process to NF membranes. This review critically summarizes the recent research progress in coordination chemistry relevant NF membranes. The participation of coordination chemistry was classified by the various functions in NF membranes like additives, interlayers, selective layers, coating layers, and cross-linkers. Then, the effect and mechanism of the coordination chemistry on the performance of NF membranes are discussed in depth. Perspectives are given for the further promotion that coordination chemistry can make in NF processes. This review also provides comprehensive insight and constructive guidance on high-performance NF membranes with coordination chemistry.

Abstract
The construction of metal-organic framework (MOF) films is a crucial step for integrating them into technical applications. However, due to the crystallization nature, it is difficult to grow most MOFs spontaneously or process them into films. Here, a convenient strategy is demonstrated for constructing MOF films by using modulators to achieve homogeneous assembly of MOF clusters. Small clusters in the early growth steps of MOFs can be stabilized by modulators to form fluidic precursors with good processibility. Then, simple removal of modulators will trigger the crosslinking of MOF clusters and lead to the formation of continuous films. This strategy is universal for the fabrication of several types of MOF films with large scale and controllable thickness, which can be deposited on a variety of substrates as well as can be patterned in micro/nano resolution. Additionally, versatile composite MOF films can be easily synthesized by introducing functional materials during the crosslinking process, which brings them broader application prospects.

Abstract
Polycystin subunits can form hetero- and homotetrameric ion channels in the membranes of various compartments of the cell. Homotetrameric polycystin channels are voltage- and calcium-modulated, whereas heterotetrameric versions are proposed to be ligand- or autoproteolytically regulated. Their importance is underscored by variants associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and by vital roles in fertilization and embryonic development. The diversity in polycystin assembly and subcellular distribution allows for a multitude of sensory functions by this class of channels. In this review, we highlight their recent structural and functional characterization, which has provided a molecular blueprint to investigate the conformational changes required for channel opening in response to unique stimuli. We consider each polycystin channel type individually, discussing how they contribute to sensory cell biology, as well as their impact on the physiology of various tissues.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO, a popular 2D graphene-based nanomaterial) has developed quickly and has received considerable attention for its applications in environmental protection and pollutant removal. However, significant knowledge gaps still exist about the interaction characteristic and joint toxicity mechanism of GO and cadmium (Cd) on aquatic organisms. In this study, GO showed a high adsorption capacity (120. 6 mg/g) and strong adsorption affinity (KL = 0.85 L/mg) for Cd2+. Integrating multiple analytical methods (e.g., electron microscopy, Raman spectra, and 2D correlation spectroscopy) revealed that Cd2+ is uniformly adsorbed on the GO surface and edge mainly through cation-π interactions. The combined ecological effects of GO and Cd2+ on Chlorella vulgaris were observed. Cd2+ induced more severe growth inhibition, photosynthesis toxicity, ultrastructure damage and plasmolysis than GO. Interestingly, we found that GO nanosheets could augment the algal toxicity of Cd2+ (e.g., chlorophyll b, mitochondrial membrane damage, and uptake). Transcriptomics and metabolomics further explained the underlying mechanism. The results indicated that the regulation of PSI-, PSII-, and metal transport-related genes (e.g., ABCG37 and ZIP4) and the inhibition of metabolic pathways (e.g., amino acid, fatty acid, and carbohydrate metabolism) were responsible for the persistent phytotoxicity. The present work provides mechanistic insights into the roles of coexisting inorganic pollutants on the environmental fate and risk of GO in aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract
Lysosomes play fundamental roles in material digestion, cellular clearance, recycling, exocytosis, wound repair, Ca2+ signaling, nutrient signaling, and gene expression regulation. The organelle also serves as a hub for important signaling networks involving the mTOR and AKT kinases. Electrophysiological recording and molecular and structural studies in the past decade have uncovered several unique lysosomal ion channels and transporters, including TPCs, TMEM175, TRPMLs, CLN7, and CLC-7. They underlie the organelle's permeability to major ions, including K+, Na+, H+, Ca2+, and Cl-. The channels are regulated by numerous cellular factors, ranging from H+ in the lumen and voltage across the lysosomal membrane to ATP in the cytosol to growth factors outside the cell. Genetic variations in the channel/transporter genes are associated with diseases that include lysosomal storage diseases and neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies with human genetics and channel activators suggest that lysosomal channels may be attractive targets for the development of therapeutics for the prevention of and intervention in human diseases.

Abstract
Since its discovery in 1955, the understanding of the lysosome has continuously increased. Once considered a mere waste removal system, the lysosome is now recognised as a highly crucial cellular component for signalling and energy metabolism. This notable evolution raises the need for a summarized review of the lysosome's biology. As such, throughout this article, we will be compiling the current knowledge regarding the lysosome's biogenesis and functions. The comprehension of this organelle's inner mechanisms is crucial to perceive how its impairment can give rise to lysosomal disease (LD). In this review, we highlight some examples of LD fine-tuned mechanisms that are already established, as well as others, which are still under investigation. Even though the understanding of the lysosome and its pathologies has expanded through the years, some of its intrinsic molecular aspects remain unknown. In order to illustrate the complexity of the lysosomal diseases we provide a few examples that have challenged the established single gene-single genetic disorder model. As such, we believe there is a strong need for further investigation of the exact abnormalities in the pathological pathways in lysosomal disease.

Abstract
This chapter explores the existing structural and functional studies on the endo-lysosomal channel TRPML1 and its analogs TRPML2, TRPML3. These channels represent the mucolipin subfamily of the TRP channel superfamily comprising important roles in sensory physiology, ion homeostasis, and signal transduction. Since 2016, numerous structures have been determined for all three members using either cryo-EM or X-ray crystallography. These studies along with recent functional analysis have considerably strengthened our knowledge on TRPML channels and its related endo-lysosomal function. This chapter, together with relevant reports in other chapters from this handbook, provides an informative and detailed tool to study the endo-lysosomal cation channels.

J Biol Chem 2022; 299:102775.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol (3,5)-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,5)P2] is a critical signaling phospholipid involved in endolysosome homeostasis. It is synthesized by a protein complex composed of PIKfyve, Vac14, and Fig4. Defects in PtdIns(3,5)P2 synthesis underlie a number of human neurological disorders, including Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, child onset progressive dystonia, and others. However, neuron-specific functions of PtdIns(3,5)P2 remain less understood. Here, we show that PtdIns(3,5)P2 pathway is required to maintain neurite thickness. Suppression of PIKfyve activities using either pharmacological inhibitors or RNA silencing resulted in decreased neurite thickness. We further find that the regulation of neurite thickness by PtdIns(3,5)P2 is mediated by NSG1/NEEP21, a neuron-specific endosomal protein. Knockdown of NSG1 expression also led to thinner neurites. mCherry-tagged NSG1 colocalized and interacted with proteins in the PtdIns(3,5)P2 machinery. Perturbation of PtdIns(3,5)P2 dynamics by overexpressing Fig4 or a PtdIns(3,5)P2-binding domain resulted in mislocalization of NSG1 to nonendosomal locations, and suppressing PtdIns(3,5)P2 synthesis resulted in an accumulation of NSG1 in EEA1-positive early endosomes. Importantly, overexpression of NSG1 rescued neurite thinning in PtdIns(3,5)P2-deficient CAD neurons and primary cortical neurons. Our study uncovered the role of PtdIns(3,5)P2 in the morphogenesis of neurons, which revealed a novel aspect of the pathogenesis of PtdIns(3,5)P2-related neuropathies. We also identified NSG1 as an important downstream protein of PtdIns(3,5)P2, which may provide a novel therapeutic target in neurological diseases.

Abstract
Autophagy is a multiple fusion event, initiating with autophagosome formation and culminating with fusion with endo-lysosomes in a Ca2+-dependent manner. The source of Ca2+ and the molecular mechanism by which Ca2+ is provided for this process are not known. The intracellular Ca2+ permeable channel transient receptor potential mucolipin 3 (TRPML3) localizes in the autophagosome and interacts with the mammalian autophagy-related protein 8 (ATG8) homolog GATE16. Here, we show that lipid-regulated TRPML3 is the Ca2+ release channel in the phagophore that provides the Ca2+ necessary for autophagy progress. We generated a TRPML3-GCaMP6 fusion protein as a targeted reporter of TRPML3 compartment localization and channel function. Notably, TRPML3-GCaMP6 localized in the phagophores, the level of which increased in response to nutrient starvation. Importantly, phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P), an essential lipid for autophagosome formation, is a selective regulator of TRPML3. TRPML3 interacted with PI3P, which is a direct activator of TRPML3 current and Ca2+ release from the phagophore, to promote and increase autophagy. Inhibition of TRPML3 suppressed autophagy even in the presence of excess PI3P, while activation of TRPML3 reversed the autophagy inhibition caused by blocking PI3P. Moreover, disruption of the TRPML3-PI3P interaction abolished both TRPML3 activation by PI3P and the increase in autophagy. Taken together, these results reveal that TRPML3 is a downstream effector of PI3P and a key regulator of autophagy. Activation of TRPML3 by PI3P is the critical step providing Ca2+ from the phagophore for the fusion process, which is essential for autophagosome biogenesis.

Abstract
Ceramic membranes for energy conversion and storage devices are essential for becoming carbon neutral due to low cost and high stability, but limited by slow proton and water transport. Meanwhile magic-angle graphene with unconventional superconductivity ushers in a new era, properties research of which are in infant stage, urgently longing for specific applications. Herein, we investigate the ionic-conductivity and water-transport properties of ceramic membrane-based magic-angle graphene by choosing proton and water as a proof-of-concept for the first time, discover the twist-angle tuned proton conduction and water transport in ceramic membrane-based magic-angle graphene, demonstrate the faster proton and water transport in magic-angle graphene than that in graphene, and construct an efficient device of protonic ceramic membrane fuel cell based upon the new fast proton-conducting materials of magic-angle graphene. The proton conduction and water transport in magic-angle graphene can be easily tuned by the twist angle, explained by the corresponding potential energy surface. The smaller the twist angle is, and the faster the proton transport is. The protonic migration energy barrier in magic-angle graphene is lower by about 50% than that in graphene. Additionally, the water transport properties in magic-angle graphene can be improved by tuning twist angles. The electrode with magic-angle graphene can provide higher performance of protonic ceramic membrane fuel cells. The present work opens the specific application of ceramic membrane-based magic-angle graphene as new proton-conducting and water-transport materials in energy and environment.

Abstract
Single-pass transmembrane receptors (SPTMRs) represent a diverse group of integral membrane proteins that are involved in many essential cellular processes, including signal transduction, cell adhesion, and transmembrane transport of materials. Dysregulation of the SPTMRs is linked with many human diseases. Despite extensive efforts in past decades, the mechanisms of action of the SPTMRs remain incompletely understood. One major hurdle is the lack of structures of the full-length SPTMRs in different functional states. Such structural information is difficult to obtain by traditional structural biology methods such as X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The recent rapid development of single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has led to an exponential surge in the number of high-resolution structures of integral membrane proteins, including SPTMRs. Cryo-EM structures of SPTMRs solved in the past few years have tremendously improved our understanding of how SPTMRs function. In this review, we will highlight these progresses in the structural studies of SPTMRs by single-particle cryo-EM, analyze important structural details of each protein involved, and discuss their implications on the underlying mechanisms. Finally, we also briefly discuss remaining challenges and exciting opportunities in the field.

Abstract
Voltage-gated and ligand-modulated ion channels play critical roles in excitable cells. To understand the interplay among voltage sensing, ligand binding, and channel opening, the structures of ion channels in various functional states and in lipid membrane environments need to be determined. Here, the random spherically constrained (RSC) single-particle cryo-EM method was employed to study human large conductance voltage- and calcium-activated potassium (hBK or hSlo1) channels reconstituted into liposomes. The hBK structure was determined at 3.5 Å resolution in the absence of Ca2+. Instead of the common fourfold symmetry observed in ligand-modulated ion channels, a twofold symmetry was observed in hBK in liposomes. Compared with the structure of isolated hSlo1 Ca2+ sensing gating rings, two opposing subunits in hBK unfurled, resulting in a wider opening towards the transmembrane region of hBK. In the pore gate domain, two opposing subunits also moved downwards relative to the two other subunits.

Abstract
Using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we researched the different anions adsorption on the graphene and found that anions can be stably adsorbed on the graphene surface due to the anion-π interaction. The adsorption energy decreased as the order of HPO42- > SO42- > F- > CH3COO- > ClO3- > NO3- > ClO4- > SCN- > Cl- > Br-. The adsorption energy markedly increased as the valence of anion increased from negative monovalence (< -20 kcal/mol) to negative bivalence (> -40 kcal/mol). The energy decomposition analysis (EDA) showed that anion-π interaction is mainly induced by orbital effect. This work provides new insights for understanding Hofmeister effect at graphene interface from the molecular level and indicates that the anion-π interaction cannot be ignored at the interface, especially for the substrate with π-electron-rich carbon-based nanomaterials.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) membranes are emerging candidates for osmotic energy conversion. However, the trade-off between ion selectivity and conductivity remains the key bottleneck. Here we demonstrate a fully crystalline imine-based 2D polymer (2DPI) membrane capable of combining excellent ionic conductivity and high selectivity for osmotic energy conversion. The 2DPI can preferentially transport cations with Na+ selectivity coefficient of 0.98 (Na+/Cl- selectivity ratio ~84) and K+ selectivity coefficient of 0.93 (K+/Cl- ratio ~29). Moreover, the nanometer-scale thickness (~70 nm) generates a substantially high ionic flux, contributing to a record power density of up to ~53 W m-2, which is superior to most of nanoporous 2D membranes (0.8~35 W m-2). Density functional theory unveils that the oxygen and imine nitrogen can both function as the active sites depending on the ionization state of hydroxyl groups, and the enhanced interaction of Na+ versus K+ with 2DPI plays a significant role in directing the ion selectivity.

Simultaneous Electrochemical Exfoliation and Covalent Functionalization of MoS 2 Membrane for Ion Sieving. ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2022; 34:e2201416.

Abstract
Transition metal dichalcogenide membranes exhibit good antiswelling properties but poor water desalination property. Here, a one-step covalent functionalization of MoS2 nanosheets for membrane fabrication is reported, which is accomplished by simultaneous exfoliating and grafting the lithium-ion-intercalated MoS2 in organic iodide water solution. The lithium intercalation amount in MoS2 is optimized so that the quality of the produced 2D nanosheets is improved with homogeneous size distribution. The lamellar MoS2 membranes are tested in reverse osmosis (RO), and the functionalized MoS2 membrane exhibits rejection rates of >90% and >80% for various dyes (Rhodamine B, Crystal Violet, Acid Fuchsin, Methyl Orange, and Evans Blue) and NaCl, respectively. The excellent ion-sieving performance and good water permeability of the functionalized MoS2 membranes are attributed to the suitable channel widths that are tuned by iodoacetamide. Furthermore, the stability of the functionalized MoS2 membranes in NaCl and dye solutions is also confirmed by RO tests. Molecular dynamics simulation shows that water molecules tend to form a single layer between the amide-functionalized MoS2 layers but a double layer between the ethanol-functionalized MoS2 (MoS2 -ethanol) layers, which indicates that a less packed structure of water between the MoS2 -ethanol layers leads to lower hydrodynamic resistance and higher permeation.

Graphene oxide chronic exposure enhanced perfluorooctane sulfonate mediated toxicity through oxidative stress generation in freshwater clam Corbicula fluminea. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 297:134242. [PMID: 35259357 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.134242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO), a frequently utilized graphene family nanomaterial, is inevitably released into the aquatic environment and interacts with organic pollutants, including perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a well-known persistent organic pollutant. To determine the adverse effects of GO chronic exposure on PFOS bioaccumulation and toxicity, adult freshwater bivalves, namely Asian clams (Corbicula fluminea) were treated for 28 days with PFOS (500 ng/L) and different concentrations of GO (0.2, 1, 5 mg/L) as PFOS single and GO single exposure groups, as well as PFOS-GO mixture exposure groups. Our results demonstrated that the bioaccumulation of PFOS was significantly enhanced by co-exposure in gills and visceral masses, which was 1.64-2.91 times higher in gills than in visceral masses. Both single, as well as co-exposure, caused a significant reduction in clams' siphoning behavior, compared to the controls. Further, the co-exposure significantly increased the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), exacerbating malondialdehyde (MDA) content, enhancing superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), while decreasing glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymatic activities in clam tissues. And co-exposure significantly altered the expressions of se-gpx, sod, cyp30, hsp40, and hsp22 genes (associated with oxidative stress and xenobiotic metabolism) both in gills and visceral masses. Moreover, co-exposure caused significant histopathological changes such as cilia degradation in the gills, expansion of tubule lumens in digestive glands, and oocyte shrinkage in gonads. Finally, the enhanced integrated biomarker response (EIBR) index revealed that co-exposure to 500 ng/L PFOS + 1 mg/L/5 mg/L GO was the most stressful circumstance. Overall, our findings suggested that the presence of GO increased PFOS bioaccumulation in tissues, inducing multifaceted negative implications at molecular and behavioral levels through oxidative stress generation in Asian clams.
