Abstract
Articular cartilage (AC) is a load-bearing tissue that covers long bones in synovial joints. The biphasic/poroelastic mechanical properties of AC help it to protect joints by distributing loads, absorbing impact forces, and reducing friction. Unfortunately, alterations in these mechanical properties adversely impact cartilage function and precede joint degeneration in the form of osteoarthritis (OA). Thus, understanding what factors regulate the poroelastic mechanical properties of cartilage is of great scientific and clinical interest. Transgenic mouse models provide a valuable platform to delineate how specific genes contribute to cartilage mechanical properties. However, the poroelastic mechanical properties of murine articular cartilage are challenging to measure due to its small size (thickness ∼ 50 microns). In the current study, our objective was to test whether the poroelastic mechanical properties of murine articular cartilage can be determined based solely on time-dependent cell death measurements under constant loading conditions. We hypothesized that in murine articular cartilage subjected to constant, sub-impact loading from an incongruent surface, cell death area and tissue strain are closely correlated. We further hypothesized that the relationship between cell death area and tissue strain can be used-in combination with inverse finite element modeling-to compute poroelastic mechanical properties. To test these hypotheses, murine cartilage-on-bone explants from different anatomical locations were subjected to constant loading conditions by an incongruent surface in a custom device. Cell death area increased over time and scaled linearly with strain, which rose in magnitude over time due to poroelastic creep. Thus, we were able to infer tissue strain from cell death area measurements. Moreover, using tissue strain values inferred from cell death area measurements, we applied an inverse finite element modeling procedure to compute poroelastic material properties and acquired data consistent with previous studies. Collectively, our findings demonstrate in the key role poroelastic creep plays in mediating cell survival in mechanically loaded cartilage and verify that cell death area can be used as a surrogate measure of tissue strain that enables determination of murine cartilage mechanical properties.

Abstract
Over the past decade, there has been a surge in discoveries of how metabolic pathways regulate immune cell function in health and disease, establishing the field of immunometabolism. Specifically, pathways such as glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and those involving lipid metabolism have been implicated in regulating immune cell function. Viral infections cause immunometabolic changes which lead to antiviral immunity, but little is known about how metabolic changes regulate interferon responses. Interferons are critical cytokines in host defense, rapidly induced upon pathogen recognition, but are also involved in autoimmune diseases. This review summarizes how metabolic change impacts interferon production. We describe how glycolysis, lipid metabolism (specifically involving eicosanoids and cholesterol), and the TCA cycle-linked intermediates itaconate and fumarate impact type I interferons. Targeting these metabolic changes presents new therapeutic possibilities to modulate type I interferons during host defense or autoimmune disorders.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate whether it is possible to prevent oolemma lysis after Piezo-assisted intracytoplasmic sperm injection (Piezo-ICSI) caused by abnormal membrane rupture. A total of 489 mature oocytes were obtained from 85 patients who underwent Piezo-ICSI in an infertility clinic. Inseminated oocytes were classified into the following two groups: normal rupture and abnormal rupture, and a portion of abnormally ruptured oocytes was randomly exposed to 7% PVP solution. Normal fertilization rate, degeneration rate, proportion of high-quality embryos on day 3, blastocyst formation, and morphologically high-quality blastocysts were compared. Abnormal rupture was defined as cytoplasmic membrane rupture before piezo pulse driving. Among the abnormal rupture groups, the normal fertilization and degeneration rates were compared between the high-stretched (ruptured at ≥ 50% during oocyte membrane stretching) and low-stretched (< 50% position) oocytes.The degeneration rate was significantly higher in abnormally ruptured oocytes than in normally ruptures oocytes (14.3% vs 1.3%, p < 0.001), and there was no significant difference in embryonic development after fertilization. PVP treatment immediately after oolemma rupture significantly decreased the degeneration rate (6.0% vs 19.7%, p = 0.031) and increased the normal fertilization rate. Similarly, there were no significant differences in the developmental potential. Furthermore, pregnancy outcome data showed no significant differences in pregnancy and live birth rates. The degeneration rate was reduced by treating low-stretched oocytes with PVP.Exposure to polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) immediately after abnormal membrane rupture represents an effective strategy to prevent oocyte degeneration. This is the first study to propose a strategy for the prevention of oocyte degeneration in Piezo-ICSI. These findings are expected to reduce the oocyte degeneration rate and increase normal fertilization rate as well as assist patients who can only acquire oocytes with weak plasma membranes.

Abstract
Plasma membrane damage (PMD) occurs in all cell types due to environmental perturbation and cell-autonomous activities. However, cellular outcomes of PMD remain largely unknown except for recovery or death. In this study, using budding yeast and normal human fibroblasts, we found that cellular senescence-stable cell cycle arrest contributing to organismal aging-is the long-term outcome of PMD. Our genetic screening using budding yeast unexpectedly identified a close genetic association between PMD response and replicative lifespan regulations. Furthermore, PMD limits replicative lifespan in budding yeast; upregulation of membrane repair factors ESCRT-III (SNF7) and AAA-ATPase (VPS4) extends it. In normal human fibroblasts, PMD induces premature senescence via the Ca2+-p53 axis but not the major senescence pathway, DNA damage response pathway. Transient upregulation of ESCRT-III (CHMP4B) suppressed PMD-dependent senescence. Together with mRNA sequencing results, our study highlights an underappreciated but ubiquitous senescent cell subtype: PMD-dependent senescent cells.

Abstract
Repair of lesions in the plasma membrane is key to sustaining cellular homeostasis. Cells maintain cytoplasmic as well as membrane-bound stores of repair proteins that can rapidly precipitate at the site of membrane lesions. However, little is known about the origins of lipids and proteins for resealing and repair of the plasma membrane. Here we study the dynamics of caveolar proteins after laser-induced lesioning of plasma membranes of mammalian C2C12 tissue culture cells and muscle cells of intact zebrafish embryos. Single-molecule diffusivity measurements indicate that caveolar clusters break up into smaller entities after wounding. Unlike Annexins and Dysferlin, caveolar proteins do not accumulate at the lesion patch. In caveolae-depleted cavin1a knockout zebrafish embryos, lesion patch formation is impaired, and injured cells show reduced survival. Our data suggest that caveolae disassembly releases surplus plasma membrane near the lesion to facilitate membrane repair after initial patch formation for emergency sealing.

Abstract
AIMS Myocardial scarring due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can be visualized by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. However, a recent study revealed a group of Type 1 AMI patients with undetectable myocardial injury on LGE. This study aims to describe these cases in detail and explore possible explanations for this new phenomenon. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 137 patients diagnosed with either ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (non-STEMI) diagnosed according to the 4th Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction underwent LGE-CMR after invasive coronary angiography. Fourteen of them (10.2%) showed no LGE and were included in the final study population. Most patients presented with acute chest pain, 3 patients were diagnosed as STEMI, and 11 as non-STEMI. Peak high-sensitive cardiac troponin T ranged from 45 to 1173 ng/L. A culprit lesion was identified in 12 patients. Severe coronary stenoses were found in five patients, while seven patients had subtotal to total coronary artery occlusion. Percutaneous coronary intervention was performed in 10 patients, while 2 patients required coronary artery bypass grafting and no intervention was required in 2 patients. Cardiac magnetic resonance was performed 30 (4-140) days after the initial presentation. Most patients showed preserved left ventricular ejection fraction on CMR. No alternative reasons for the rise/fall of high-sensitive cardiac troponin T were found. CONCLUSION The absence of LGE on CMR in patients with Type 1 AMI is a new finding. While insufficient spatial resolution of LGE imaging, delayed CMR performance, spontaneous reperfusion, and coronary collaterals may provide some explanations, further investigations are required to fully understand this phenomenon.

Abstract
Nanostructures are powerful components for the development of high-performance nanodevices. Revealing and understanding the cell-nanostructure interface are essential for improving and guiding nanodevice design for investigations of cell physiology. For intracellular electrophysiological detection, the cell-nanostructure interface significantly affects the quality of recorded intracellular action potentials and the application of nanodevices in cardiology research and pharmacological screening. Most of the current investigations of biointerfaces focus on nanovertical structures, and few involve nanoconcave structures. Here, we design both nanoconvex and nanoconcave devices to perform intracellular electrophysiological recordings. The amplitude, signal-to-noise ratio, duration, and repeatability of the recorded intracellular electrophysiological signals provide a multifaceted characterization of the cell-nanostructure interface. We demonstrate that devices based on both convex and concave nanostructures can create tight coupling, which facilitates high-quality and stable intracellular recordings and paves the way for precise electrophysiological study.

Abstract
Afferent synapses of cochlear inner hair cells (IHCs) employ a unique molecular machinery. Otoferlin is a key player in this machinery, and its genetic defects cause human auditory synaptopathy. We employed site-directed mutagenesis in mice to investigate the role of Ca2+ binding to the C2F domain of otoferlin. Substituting two aspartate residues of the C2F top loops, which are thought to coordinate Ca2+-ions, by alanines (OtofD1841/1842A) abolished Ca2+-influx-triggered IHC exocytosis and synchronous signaling in the auditory pathway despite substantial expression (~60%) of the mutant otoferlin in the basolateral IHC pole. Ca2+ influx of IHCs and their resting membrane capacitance, reflecting IHC size, as well as the number of IHC synapses were maintained. The mutant otoferlin showed a strong apex-to-base abundance gradient in IHCs, suggesting impaired protein targeting. Our results indicate a role of the C2F domain in otoferlin targeting and of Ca2+ binding by the C2F domain for IHC exocytosis and hearing.

Abstract
To survive daily damage, the formation of actomyosin ring at the wound periphery is required to rapidly close cell wounds. Calcium influx is one of the start signals for these cell wound repair events. Here, we find that rapid recruitment of all three Drosophila calcium responding and phospholipid binding Annexin proteins (AnxB9, AnxB10, AnxB11) to distinct regions around the wound are regulated by the quantity of calcium influx rather than their binding to specific phospholipids. The distinct recruitment patterns of these Annexins regulate the subsequent recruitment of RhoGEF2 and RhoGEF3 through actin stabilization to form a robust actomyosin ring. Surprisingly, we find that reduced extracellular calcium and depletion of intracellular calcium affect cell wound repair differently, despite these two conditions exhibiting similar GCaMP signals. Thus, our results suggest that, in addition to initiating repair events, both the quantity and sources of calcium influx are important for precise Annexin spatiotemporal protein recruitment to cell wounds and efficient wound repair.

Abstract
Maintaining cellular viability relies on the integrity of the plasma membrane, which must be repaired upon damage. Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-mediated membrane fusion is a crucial mechanism involved in membrane repair. In C. elegans epidermal cell hyp 7, syntaxin-2 (SYX-2) facilitates large membrane wound repair; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we found that SNAP-25 protein RIC-4 and synaptobrevin protein SEC-22 are required for SYX-2 recruitment at the wound site. They interact to form a SNARE complex to promote membrane repair in vivo and fusion in vitro. Moreover, we found that SEC-22 localized in multiple intracellular compartments, including endosomes and the trans-Golgi network, which recruited to the wounds. Furthermore, inhibition of RAB-5 disrupted SEC-22 localization and prevented its interaction with SYX-2. Our findings suggest that RAB-5 facilitates the formation of the RIC-4/SEC-22/SYX-2 SNARE complex and provides valuable insights into the molecular mechanism of how cells repair large membrane wounds.

Abstract
Fusion of individual vesicles carrying membrane-building materials with the plasma membrane (PM) enables gradual cell expansion and shape change. Constricting ring (CR) cells of carnivorous fungi triple in size within 0.1-1 s to capture passing nematodes. Here, we investigated how a carnivorous fungus, Drechslerella dactyloides, executes rapid and irreversible PM expansion during CR inflation. During CR maturation, vesicles carrying membrane-building materials accumulate and fuse, forming a structure named the Palisade-shaped Membrane-building Structure (PMS) around the rumen side of ring cells. After CR inflation, the PMS disappears, with partially inflated cells displaying wavy PM and fully inflated cells exhibiting smooth PM, suggesting that the PMS serves as the reservoir for membrane-building materials to enable rapid and extensive PM expansion. The DdSnc1, a v-SNARE protein, accumulates at the inner side of ring cells and is necessary for PMS formation and CR inflation. This study elucidates the unique cellular mechanisms underpinning rapid CR inflation.

Abstract
Defects in plasma membrane repair can lead to muscle and heart diseases in humans. Tripartite motif-containing protein (TRIM)72 (mitsugumin 53; MG53) has been determined to rapidly nucleate vesicles at the site of membrane damage, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we present the structure of Mus musculus TRIM72, a complete model of a TRIM E3 ubiquitin ligase. We demonstrated that the interaction between TRIM72 and phosphatidylserine-enriched membranes is necessary for its oligomeric assembly and ubiquitination activity. Using cryogenic electron tomography and subtomogram averaging, we elucidated a higher-order model of TRIM72 assembly on the phospholipid bilayer. Combining structural and biochemical techniques, we developed a working molecular model of TRIM72, providing insights into the regulation of RING-type E3 ligases through the cooperation of multiple domains in higher-order assemblies. Our findings establish a fundamental basis for the study of TRIM E3 ligases and have therapeutic implications for diseases associated with membrane repair.

Abstract
Sulfur mustard (SM) and nitrogen mustard (NM) are vesicant agents that cause skin injury and blistering through complicated cellular events, involving DNA damage, free radical formation, and lipid peroxidation. The development of therapeutic approaches targeting the multi-cellular process of tissue injury repair can potentially provide effective countermeasures to combat vesicant-induced dermal lesions. MG53 is a vital component of cell membrane repair. Previous studies have demonstrated that topical application of recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) protein has the potential to promote wound healing. In this study, we further investigate the role of MG53 in NM-induced skin injury. Compared with wild-type mice, mg53-/- mice are more susceptible to NM-induced dermal injuries, whereas mice with sustained elevation of MG53 in circulation are resistant to dermal exposure of NM. Exposure of keratinocytes and human follicle stem cells to NM causes elevation of oxidative stress and intracellular aggregation of MG53, thus compromising MG53's intrinsic cell membrane repair function. Topical rhMG53 application mitigates NM-induced dermal injury in mice. Histologic examination reveals the therapeutic benefits of rhMG53 are associated with the preservation of epidermal integrity and hair follicle structure in mice with dermal NM exposure. Overall, these findings identify MG53 as a potential therapeutic agent to mitigate vesicant-induced skin injuries.

Abstract
Humans have six members of the ferlin protein family: dysferlin, myoferlin, otoferlin, fer1L4, fer1L5, and fer1L6. These proteins share common features such as multiple Ca2+-binding C2 domains, FerA domains, and membrane anchoring through their single C-terminal transmembrane domain, and are believed to play a key role in calcium-triggered membrane fusion and vesicle trafficking. Otoferlin plays a crucial role in hearing and vestibular function. In this review, we will discuss how we see otoferlin working as a Ca2+-dependent mechanical sensor regulating synaptic vesicle fusion at the hair cell ribbon synapses. Although otoferlin is also present in the central nervous system, particularly in the cortex and amygdala, its role in brain tissues remains unknown. Mutations in the OTOF gene cause one of the most frequent genetic forms of congenital deafness, DFNB9. These mutations produce severe to profound hearing loss due to a defect in synaptic excitatory glutamatergic transmission between the inner hair cells and the nerve fibers of the auditory nerve. Gene therapy protocols that allow normal rescue expression of otoferlin in hair cells have just started and are currently in pre-clinical phase. In parallel, studies have linked ferlins to cancer through their effect on cell signaling and development, allowing tumors to form and cancer cells to adapt to a hostile environment. Modulation by mechanical forces and Ca2+ signaling are key determinants of the metastatic process. Although ferlins importance in cancer has not been extensively studied, data show that otoferlin expression is significantly associated with survival in specific cancer types, including clear cell and papillary cell renal carcinoma, and urothelial bladder cancer. These findings indicate a role for otoferlin in the carcinogenesis of these tumors, which requires further investigation to confirm and understand its exact role, particularly as it varies by tumor site. Targeting this protein may lead to new cancer therapies.

Abstract
Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) are effective tools for pathogens infection. By disrupting epithelial barriers and killing immune cells, PFTs promotes the colonization and reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms in their host. In turn, the host triggers defense responses, such as endocytosis, exocytosis, or autophagy. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) bacteria produce PFT, known as crystal proteins (Cry) which damage the intestinal cells of insects or nematodes, eventually killing them. In insects, aminopeptidase N (APN) has been shown to act as an important receptor for Cry toxins. Here, using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as model, an extensive screening of APN gene family was performed to analyze the potential role of these proteins in the mode of action of Cry5Ba against the nematode. We found that one APN, MNP-1, participate in the toxin defense response, since the mnp-1(ok2434) mutant showed a Cry5Ba hypersensitive phenotype. Gene expression analysis in mnp-1(ok2434) mutant revealed the involvement of two protease genes, F19C6.4 and R03G8.6, that participate in Cry5Ba degradation. Finally, analysis of the transduction pathway involved in F19C6.4 and R03G8.6 expression revealed that upon Cry5Ba exposure, the worms up regulated both protease genes through the activation of the FOXO transcription factor DAF-16, which was translocated into the nucleus. The nuclear location of DAF-16 was found to be dependent on mnp-1 under Cry5Ba treatment. Our work provides evidence of new host responses against PFTs produced by an enteric pathogenic bacterium, resulting in activation of host intestinal proteases that degrade the PFT in the intestine.

Abstract
Lysosomes play a central role in cellular homeostasis and alterations in this compartment associate with many diseases. The most studied example is that of lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), a group of 60 + maladies due to genetic mutations affecting lysosomal components, mostly enzymes. This leads to aberrant intracellular storage of macromolecules, altering normal cell function and causing multiorgan syndromes, often fatal within the first years of life. Several treatment modalities are available for a dozen LSDs, mostly consisting of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) strategies. Yet, poor biodistribution to main targets such as the central nervous system, musculoskeletal tissue, and others, as well as generation of blocking antibodies and adverse effects hinder effective LSD treatment. Drug delivery systems are being studied to surmount these obstacles, including polymeric constructs and nanoparticles that constitute the focus of this article. We provide an overview of the formulations being tested, the diseases they aim to treat, and the results observed from respective in vitro and in vivo studies. We also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these strategies, the remaining gaps of knowledge regarding their performance, and important items to consider for their clinical translation. Overall, polymeric nanoconstructs hold considerable promise to advance treatment for LSDs.

Abstract
Plasma membrane rupture often leads to cell damage, especially when there is a lack of membrane repair proteins near the wounds due to genetic mutations in organisms. To efficiently promote the repair of the injured lipid membrane, nanomedicines may act as a promising alternative to membrane repair proteins, but the related research is still in its infancy. Herein, using dissipative particle dynamics simulations, we designed a class of Janus polymer-grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) that can mimic the function of membrane repair proteins. The Janus PGNPs comprise both hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymer chains grafted on nanoparticles (NPs). We track the dynamic process of the adsorption of Janus PGNPs at the damaged site in the lipid membrane and systematically assess the driving forces for this process. Our results reveal that tuning the length of the grafted polymer chains and the surface polarity of the NPs can efficiently enhance the adsorption of Janus PGNPs at the site of the damaged membrane to reduce membrane stress. After repair, the adsorbed Janus PGNPs can be successfully detached from the membrane, leaving the membrane untouched. These results provide valuable guidelines for designing advanced nanomaterials for the repair of damaged lipid membranes.

Abstract
The plasma membrane of a cell is subject to stresses causing ruptures that must be repaired immediately to preserve membrane integrity and ensure cell survival. Yet, the spatio-temporal membrane dynamics at the wound site and the source of the membrane required for wound repair are poorly understood. Here, it is shown that early endosomes, previously only known to function in the uptake of extracellular material and its endocytic transport, are involved in plasma membrane repair in human endothelial cells. Using live-cell imaging and correlative light and electron microscopy, it is demonstrated that membrane injury triggers a previously unknown exocytosis of early endosomes that is induced by Ca2+ entering through the wound. This exocytosis is restricted to the vicinity of the wound site and mediated by the endosomal soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) VAMP2, which is crucial for efficient membrane repair. Thus, the newly identified Ca2+ -evoked and localized exocytosis of early endosomes supplies the membrane material required for rapid resealing of a damaged plasma membrane, thereby providing the first line of defense against damage in mechanically challenged endothelial cells.

Abstract
Aerolysin family pore-forming toxins damage the membrane, but membrane repair responses used to resist them, if any, remain controversial. Four proposed membrane repair mechanisms include toxin removal by caveolar endocytosis, clogging by annexins, microvesicle shedding catalyzed by MEK, and patch repair. Which repair mechanism aerolysin triggers is unknown. Membrane repair requires Ca2+, but it is controversial if Ca2+ flux is triggered by aerolysin. Here, we determined Ca2+ influx and repair mechanisms activated by aerolysin. In contrast to what is seen with cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs), removal of extracellular Ca2+ protected cells from aerolysin. Aerolysin triggered sustained Ca2+ influx. Intracellular Ca2+ chelation increased cell death, indicating that Ca2+-dependent repair pathways were triggered. Caveolar endocytosis failed to protect cells from aerolysin or CDCs. MEK-dependent repair did not protect against aerolysin. Aerolysin triggered slower annexin A6 membrane recruitment compared to CDCs. In contrast to what is seen with CDCs, expression of the patch repair protein dysferlin protected cells from aerolysin. We propose aerolysin triggers a Ca2+-dependent death mechanism that obscures repair, and the primary repair mechanism used to resist aerolysin is patch repair. We conclude that different classes of bacterial toxins trigger distinct repair mechanisms.

Abstract
Cell membrane repair is a critical process used to maintain cell integrity and survival from potentially lethal chemical, and mechanical membrane injury. Rapid increases in local calcium levels due to a membrane rupture have been widely accepted as a trigger for multiple membrane-resealing models that utilize exocytosis, endocytosis, patching, and shedding mechanisms. Calcium-sensor proteins, such as synaptotagmins (Syt), dysferlin, S100 proteins, and annexins, have all been identified to regulate, or participate in, multiple modes of membrane repair. Dysfunction of membrane repair from inefficiencies or genetic alterations in these proteins contributes to diseases such as muscular dystrophy (MD) and heart disease. The present review covers the role of some of the key calcium-sensor proteins and their involvement in membrane repair.

Abstract
Bilayered membranes separate cells from their surroundings and form boundaries between intracellular organelles and the cytosol. Gated transport of solutes across membranes enables cells to establish vital ion gradients and a sophisticated metabolic network. However, an advanced compartmentalization of biochemical reactions makes cells also particularly vulnerable to membrane damage inflicted by pathogens, chemicals, inflammatory responses or mechanical stress. To avoid potentially lethal consequences of membrane injuries, cells continuously monitor the structural integrity of their membranes and readily activate appropriate pathways to plug, patch, engulf or shed the damaged membrane area. Here, we review recent insights into the cellular mechanisms that underly an effective maintenance of membrane integrity. We discuss how cells respond to membrane lesions caused by bacterial toxins and endogenous pore-forming proteins, with a primary focus on the intimate crosstalk between membrane proteins and lipids during wound formation, detection and elimination. We also discuss how a delicate balance between membrane damage and repair determines cell fate upon bacterial infection or activation of pro-inflammatory cell death pathways.

Abstract
The use of biomarkers is undisputed in the diagnosis of primary myocardial infarction (MI), but their value for identifying MI is less well studied in the postoperative phase following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). To identify patients with periprocedural MI (PMI), several conflicting definitions of PMI have been proposed, relying either on cardiac troponin (cTn) or the MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase, with or without supporting evidence of ischaemia. However, CABG inherently induces the release of cardiac biomarkers, as reflected by significant cTn concentrations in patients with uncomplicated postoperative courses. Still, the underlying (patho)physiological release mechanisms of cTn are incompletely understood, complicating adequate interpretation of postoperative increases in cTn concentrations. Therefore, the aim of the current review is to present these potential underlying mechanisms of cTn release in general, and following CABG in particular (Graphical Abstract). Based on these mechanisms, dissimilarities in the release of cTnI and cTnT are discussed, with potentially important implications for clinical practice. Consequently, currently proposed cTn biomarker cut-offs by the prevailing definitions of PMI might warrant re-assessment, with differentiation in cut-offs for the separate available assays and surgical strategies. To resolve these issues, future prospective studies are warranted to determine the prognostic influence of biomarker release in general and PMI in particular.

Abstract
Tumor-targeting monoclonal antibodies are available for a number of cancer cell types (over)expressing the corresponding tumor antigens. Such antibodies can limit tumor progression by different mechanisms, including direct growth inhibition and immune-mediated mechanisms, in particular complement-dependent cytotoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis, and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). ADCC can be mediated by various types of immune cells, including neutrophils, the most abundant leukocyte in circulation. Neutrophils express a number of Fc receptors, including Fcγ- and Fcα-receptors, and can therefore kill tumor cells opsonized with either IgG or IgA antibodies. In recent years, important insights have been obtained with respect to the mechanism(s) by which neutrophils engage and kill antibody-opsonized cancer cells and these findings are reviewed here. In addition, we consider a number of additional ways in which neutrophils may affect cancer progression, in particular by regulating adaptive anti-cancer immunity.

Abstract
Electrophysiological recording, as a long-sought objective, plays a crucial role in fundamental biomedical research and practical clinical applications. The challenge in developing electrophysiological detection platforms is to combine simplicity, stability, and sensitivity in the same device. In this study, we develop a nanotrapped microelectrode based on a porous PET membrane, which is compatible with large-scale microtechnologies. The nanotraps can promote the protrusion of the local cell membrane in the hollow center and offer a unique nanoedge structure for tight sealing and effective electroporation. We demonstrate that scalable nanotraps can enhance cell-electrode coupling and perform high-quality intracellular recording. Further, the nanoedge-enhanced electroporation and minimally invasive nanotrapped recordings afford much longer intracellular access of over 100 min and permit consecutive electroporation events in a short period of time. This study suggests that the geometry-regulating strategy of the cell-electrode nanointerface could significantly improve the intracellular recording performance of a nanopatterned electrode.

Abstract
After damage, cells repair their plasma membrane in an active process that is driven by Ca2+ entering through the wound. This triggers a range of Ca2+-regulated events such as the translocation of different Ca2+-binding proteins to the wound site which likely function in the repair process. The translocated proteins include Ca2+/phospholipid binding proteins of the annexin (ANX) family and S100A11, an EF hand-type Ca2+-binding protein which can interact with ANX. The molecular mechanism by which S100A11 mediates PM wound repair remains poorly understood although it likely involves interactions with ANX. Here, using S100A11 knockout endothelial cells and expression of S100A11 mutants, we show that endothelial S100A11 is essential for efficient plasma membrane wound repair and engages in Ca2+-dependent interactions with ANXA1 and ANXA2 through its C-terminal extension (residues 93–105). ANXA2 but not ANXA1 translocation to the wound is substantially inhibited in the absence of S100A11; however, the repair defect in S100A11 knockout cells is rescued by ectopic expression of an ANX interaction-defective S100A11 mutant, suggesting an ANX-independent role of S100A11 in membrane wound repair. In search for other interaction partners that could mediate this action of S100A11 we identify extended synaptotagmin 1 (E-Syt1), a protein tether that regulates endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact sites. E-Syt1 binds to S100A11 in the presence of Ca2+ and depletion of E-Syt1 interferes with wound site recruitment of S100A11 and proper membrane resealing. Thus, the role of S100A11 in membrane wound repair does not exclusively dependent on ANX interactions and a Ca2+-regulated S100A11-E-Syt1 complex acts as a yet unrecognized component of the membrane resealing machinery.

Abstract
To cope with continuous physiological and environmental stresses, cells of all sizes require an effective wound repair process to seal breaches to their cortex. Once a wound is recognized, the cell must rapidly plug the injury site, reorganize the cytoskeleton and the membrane to pull the wound closed, and finally remodel the cortex to return to homeostasis. Complementary studies using various model organisms have demonstrated the importance and complexity behind the formation and translocation of an actin ring at the wound periphery during the repair process. Proteins such as actin nucleators, actin bundling factors, actin-plasma membrane anchors, and disassembly factors are needed to regulate actin ring dynamics spatially and temporally. Notably, Rho family GTPases have been implicated throughout the repair process, whereas other proteins are required during specific phases. Interestingly, although different models share a similar set of recruited proteins, the way in which they use them to pull the wound closed can differ. Here, we describe what is currently known about the formation, translocation, and remodeling of the actin ring during the cell wound repair process in model organisms, as well as the overall impact of cell wound repair on daily events and its importance to our understanding of certain diseases and the development of therapeutic delivery modalities.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is characterised by abnormal lipid and cell accumulation within arterial layers that leads to disturbed blood flow. Modified cholesterol forms such as oxidised low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) enter cells altering their phenotype, triggering over-exuberant repair and arterial occlusion, myocardial infarction or stroke. We hypothesised that oxLDL enters vascular wall cells and induces interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion, potentially via a caspase-1/NLRP3 mechanism. Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) and smooth muscle cells (HCASMC), isolated from different donors, were cultured and stimulated (primed) with pro-inflammatory cytokines TNFα and IL-1α (10 ng/mL each, for 48 h), followed by incubation with human oxLDL (10-50 ug/mL) for up to 6 h. Inhibitors of caspase-1 (YVAD), NLRP3 (MCC950) and gasdermin D (disulfiram) were added 1 h before oxLDL. Cell lysates and culture supernatants were collected and analysed for IL-1β using ELISA. Microscopy imaging showed oxLDL entered stimulated cells and formed particles. OxLDL at 20 and 50 ug/mL induced the maximum release of IL-1β from stimulated HCASMCs and HCAECs, respectively, compared to control. Inhibition of either NLRP3, caspase-1 or gasdermin D significantly reduced the release of IL-1β (4-fold, P < 0.0001; 14-fold, P < 0.0001, 1.5-fold, P < 0.0003, respectively) in HCAEC. In contrast, in HCASMCs, only caspase-1 inhibition reduced the release of IL-1β (2.1-fold, P < 0.0001). HCAECs and HCASMCs elicited the release of IL-1β in response to the same stimulus via different mechanisms. In HCAECs, released IL-1β potentially exits via a GSDMD-induced membrane pore. These data suggest that caspase-1 or gasdermin D inhibition is likely to be effective vessel wall cell-specific strategies for the reduction of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Glaucoma is a common neurodegenerative blinding disease that is closely associated with chronic biomechanical strain at the optic nerve head (ONH). Yet, the cellular injury and mechanosensing mechanisms underlying the resulting damage have remained critically unclear. We previously identified Annexin A4 (ANXA4) from a proteomic analyses of human ONH astrocytes undergoing pathological biomechanical strain that mimics glaucomatous conditions. Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid binding proteins with key functions in plasma membrane repair (PMR); an active mechanism to limit and mend cellular injury that involves membrane and cytoskeletal reorganizations. However, a role for direct membrane damage and PMR has not been well studied in the context of biomechanical strain, such as that associated with glaucoma. Here we report that this moderate strain surprisingly damages cell membranes to increase permeability in a calcium-dependent manner, and induces rapid aggregation of ANXA4 at injury sites. ANXA4 loss-of-function increases permeability, while exogenous ANXA4 reduces it. Furthermore, ANXA4 aggregation is associated with F-actin dynamics in vitro, and remarkably this interaction and aggregation signature is also observed in the glaucomatous ONH in patient samples. Together these studies link moderate biomechanical strain with direct membrane damage and actin dynamics, and identify an active PMR role for ANXA4 in new model of cell injury associated with glaucoma pathogenesis.

Abstract
Maintaining the integrity of the plasma membrane after cellular damage is essential for cell survival. However, it is unclear how cells repair large membrane injuries in vivo. Here, we report that the tetraspanin protein, TSP-15, is recruited to large membrane wounds and forms a ring-like structure in C. elegans epidermis and promotes membrane repair after an injury. TSP-15 recruits from the adjacent region underneath the plasma membrane to the wound site in a RAB-5-dependent manner upon membrane damage. Genetic and live-imaging analysis suggested that the endosomal sorting complex required for transport III (ESCRT III) is necessary for recruiting TSP-15 from the early endosome to the damaged membrane. Moreover, TSP-15 interacts with and is required for the accumulation of t-SNARE protein Syntaxin-2, which facilitates membrane repair. These findings provide valuable insights into the role of the conserved tetraspanin TSP-15 in the cellular repair of large wounds resulting from environmental insults.

Abstract
Gasdermins (GSDMs) are a group of proteins that are cleaved by inflammatory caspases to induce pore formation in the plasma membrane to cause membrane permeabilization and lytic cell death or pyroptosis. All GSDMs share a conserved structure, containing a cytotoxic N-terminal (NT) pore-forming domain and a C-terminal (CT) repressor domain. Entamoeba histolytica (Eh) in contact with macrophages, triggers outside-in signaling to activate inflammatory caspase-4/1 via the noncanonical and canonical pathway to promote cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD). Cleavage of GSDMD removes the auto-inhibition that masks the active pore-forming NT domain in the full-length protein by interactions with GSDM-CT. The cleaved NT-GSDMD monomers then oligomerize to form pores in the plasma membrane to facilitate the release of IL-1β and IL-18 with a measured amount of pyroptosis. Pyroptosis is an effective way to counteract intracellular parasites, which exploit replicative niche to avoid killing. To date, most GSDMs have been verified to perform pore-forming activity and GSDMD-induced pyroptosis is rapidly emerging as a mechanism of anti-microbial host defence. Here, we review our comprehensive and current knowledge on the expression, activation, biological functions, and regulation of GSDMD cleavage with emphases on physiological scenario and related dysfunctions of each GSDM member as executioner of cell death, cytokine secretion and inflammation against Eh and other protozoan parasitic infections.

Abstract
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) in malignant cells can decrease tumor burden and activate antitumor immune response to obtain lasting antitumor immunity, leading to the elimination of distant metastases and prevention of recurrence. Here, we reveal that ppM1 peptide is capable of forming irreparable transmembrane pores on tumor cell membrane, leading to ICD which we name poroptosis. Poroptosis is directly dependent on cell membrane nanopores regardless of the upstream signaling of cell death. ppM1-induced poroptosis was characterized by the sustained release of intracellular LDH. This unique feature is distinct from other well-characterized types of acute necrosis induced by freezing-thawing (F/T) and detergents, which leads to the burst release of intracellular LDH. Our results suggested that steady transmembrane-nanopore-mediated subacute cell death played a vital role in subsequent activated immunity that transforms to an antitumor immune microenvironment. Selectively generating poroptosis in cancer cell could be a promise strategy for cancer therapy.

Abstract
All living beings continue their life by receiving energy and by excreting waste products. In animals, the arteries are the pathways of these transfers to the cells. Angiogenesis, the formation of the arteries by the development of pre-existed parental blood vessels, is a phenomenon that occurs naturally during puberty due to certain physiological processes such as menstruation, wound healing, or the adaptation of athletes' bodies during exercise. Nonetheless, the same life-giving process also occurs frequently in some patients and, conversely, occurs slowly in some physiological problems, such as cancer and diabetes, so inhibiting angiogenesis has been considered to be one of the important strategies to fight these diseases. Accordingly, in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, the highly controlled process of angiogenesis is very important in tissue repairing. Excessive angiogenesis can promote tumor progression and lack of enough angiogensis can hinder tissue repair. Thereby, both excessive and deficient angiogenesis can be problematic, this review article introduces and describes the types of factors involved in controlling angiogenesis. Considering all of the existing strategies, we will try to lay out the latest knowledge that deals with stimulating/inhibiting the angiogenesis. At the end of the article, owing to the early-reviewed mechanical aspects that overshadow angiogenesis, the strategies of angiogenesis in tissue engineering will be discussed.

Abstract
To develop new strategies for improving the efficacy and biosafety of sonoporation-based macromolecule delivery, it is essential to understand the mechanisms underlying plasma membrane re-sealing and function recovery of the cells perforated by ultrasound-driven microbubbles. However, we lack a clear understanding of the spatiotemporal dynamics of the disrupted actin cytoskeleton and its role in the re-sealing of sonoporated cells. Here we used a customized experimental setup for single-pulse ultrasound (133.33-µs duration and 0.70-MPa peak negative pressure) exposure to microbubbles and for real-time recording of single-cell (human umbilical vein endothelial cell) responses by laser confocal microscopic imaging. We found that in reversibly sonoporated cells, the locally disrupted actin cytoskeleton, which was spatially correlated with the perforated plasma membrane, underwent three successive phases (expansion; contraction and re-sealing; and recovery) to re-model and that each phase of the disrupted actin cytoskeleton was approximately synchronized with that of the perforated plasma membrane. Moreover, compared with the closing time of the perforated plasma membrane, the same time was used for the re-sealing of the actin cytoskeleton in mildly sonoporated cells and a longer time was required in moderately sonoporated cells. Further, the generation, directional migration, accumulation and re-polymerization of globular actin polymers during the three phases drove the re-modeling of the actin cytoskeleton. However, in irreversibly sonoporated cells, the actin cytoskeleton, which underwent expansion and no contraction, was progressively de-polymerized and could not be re-sealed. Finally, we found that intracellular calcium transients were essential for the recruitment of globular actin and the re-modeling of the actin cytoskeleton. These results provide new insight into the role of actin cytoskeleton dynamics in the re-sealing of sonoporated cells and serve to guide the design of new strategies for sonoporation-based delivery.

Abstract
Localized and reversible plasma membrane disruption is a promising technique employed for the targeted deposition of exogenous therapeutic compounds for the treatment of disease. Indeed, the plasma membrane represents a significant barrier to successful delivery, and various physical methods using light, sound, and electrical energy have been developed to generate cell membrane perforations to circumvent this issue. To restore homeostasis and preserve viability, localized cellular repair mechanisms are subsequently triggered to initiate a rapid restoration of plasma membrane integrity. Here, we summarize the known emergency membrane repair responses, detailing the salient membrane sealing proteins as well as the underlying cytoskeletal remodeling that follows the physical induction of a localized plasma membrane pore, and we present an overview of potential modulation strategies that may improve targeted drug delivery approaches.

Abstract
The sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle cells is a highly ordered structure consisting of an intricate network of tubules and cisternae specialized for regulating Ca2+ homeostasis in the context of muscle contraction. The sarcoplasmic reticulum contains several proteins, some of which support Ca2+ storage and release, while others regulate the formation and maintenance of this highly convoluted organelle and mediate the interaction with other components of the muscle fiber. In this review, some of the main issues concerning the biology of the sarcoplasmic reticulum will be described and discussed; particular attention will be addressed to the structure and function of the two domains of the sarcoplasmic reticulum supporting the excitation-contraction coupling and Ca2+-uptake mechanisms.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a widely accepted treatment approach and has heightened the quality of care among physicians. PRP has been used over the last decade to boost clinical results of plastic therapies, periodontal surgery and intra-bony defects. According to certain research, elevated levels of PRP growth factors that could promote tissue repair and have the potential for PRP to be beneficial in regenerating processes that Maxillofacial and Oral Surgeons, Veterinary Officers, Athletic medicine specialists and Dermatologists have long admired. PRP is an autologous whole blood fraction that has a heavy amount of a variety of growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-b), insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) which can facilitate repair and regeneration. Moreover, a clinical trial of PRP in severe angina patients has shown its excellent safety profile. However, PRP is a very complex biological substance with an array of active biomolecules, its functions are yet to be fully clarified. In-addition, there was insufficient work assessing possible cardiovascular tissue benefits from PRP. Thus, it still remains necessary to identify the most clinically important cardiovascular applications and further research in clinical scenario need to be validated.

Abstract
A hallmark of Entamoeba histolytica (Eh) invasion in the gut is acute inflammation dominated by the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β. This is initiated when Eh in contact with macrophages in the lamina propria activates caspase-1 by recruiting the NLRP3 inflammasome complex in a Gal-lectin and EhCP-A5-dependent manner resulting in the maturation and secretion of IL-1β and IL-18. Here, we interrogated the requirements and mechanisms for Eh-induced caspase-4/1 activation in the cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD) to regulate bioactive IL-1β release in the absence of cell death in human macrophages. Unlike caspase-1, caspase-4 activation occurred as early as 10 min that was dependent on Eh Gal-lectin and EhCP-A5 binding to macrophages. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 gene edited CASP4/1, NLRP3 KO and ASC-def cells, caspase-4 activation was found to be independent of the canonical NLRP3 inflammasomes. In CRISPR-Cas9 gene edited CASP1 macrophages, caspase-4 activation was significantly up regulated that enhanced the enzymatic cleavage of GSDMD at the same cleavage site as caspase-1 to induce GSDMD pore formation and sustained bioactive IL-1β secretion. Eh-induced IL-1β secretion was independent of pyroptosis as revealed by pharmacological blockade of GSDMD pore formation and in CRISPR-Cas9 gene edited GSDMD KO macrophages. This was in marked contrast to the potent positive control, lipopolysaccharide + Nigericin that induced high expression of predominantly caspase-1 that efficiently cleaved GSDMD with high IL-1β secretion/release associated with massive cell pyroptosis. These results reveal that Eh triggered “hyperactivated macrophages” allowed caspase-4 dependent cleavage of GSDMD and IL-1β secretion to occur in the absence of pyroptosis that may play an important role in disease pathogenesis. A unique feature of Entamoeba histolytica (Eh) infection is the capability to cause symptoms in only a limited subset of individuals. This occurs when Eh breaches intestinal innate host defences and comes in contact with the colonic epithelium and immune cells in the lamina propria to elicit a pro-inflammatory response critical in disease pathogenesis. Macrophages are considered among the first responders that Eh comes in direct contact with to activate caspase-1 by initiating the assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome complex in a Gal-lectin and EhCP-A5-dependent manner, resulting in processing and release of IL-1β. In this study, we showed that inflammatory caspase-4 was activated earlier than caspase-1 when Eh contacts macrophages independent of the NLRP3 inflammasome complex. More importantly, Eh-induced caspase-4 was essential in regulating bioactive IL-1β secretion in the absence of cell death (pyroptosis) that was induced primarily by the activation of caspase-1. Mechanistically, we reveal that Eh-induced caspase-4 activation was critically important in regulating a measured amount of gasdermin D (GSDMD) cleavage resulting in GSDMD pore formation that facilitated sustained IL-1β secretion from macrophages. This was in marked contrast to LPS + Nigericin stimulated macrophages that robustly activated casapase-1 via the NLRP3 inflammasome that resulted in almost complete cleavage of GSDMD with pore-forming proteins that caused massive pyroptosis. Our study provides new insights on how Eh in contact with macrophages fine tune macrophage responses via the activation of caspase-4/1 to allow the cell to regulate IL-1β release by keeping the cells alive. We believe this mechanism of activating macrophages (termed hyperactivation) is a critically overlooked response in the biology of Eh that may play a major role in disease pathogenesis and host defence.

Abstract
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Serological assessment of cardiac troponins (cTn) is the gold standard to assess myocardial injury in clinical practice. A greater magnitude of acutely or chronically elevated cTn concentrations is associated with lower event-free survival in patients and the general population. Exercise training is known to improve cardiovascular function and promote longevity, but exercise can produce an acute rise in cTn concentrations, which may exceed the upper reference limit in a substantial number of individuals. Whether exercise-induced cTn elevations are attributable to a physiological or pathological response and if they are clinically relevant has been debated for decades. Thus far, exercise-induced cTn elevations have been viewed as the only benign form of cTn elevations. However, recent studies report intriguing findings that shed new light on the underlying mechanisms and clinical relevance of exercise-induced cTn elevations. We will review the biochemical characteristics of cTn assays, key factors determining the magnitude of postexercise cTn concentrations, the release kinetics, underlying mechanisms causing and contributing to exercise-induced cTn release, and the clinical relevance of exercise-induced cTn elevations. We will also explain the association with cardiac function, correlates with (subclinical) cardiovascular diseases and exercise-induced cTn elevations predictive value for future cardiovascular events. Last, we will provide recommendations for interpretation of these findings and provide direction for future research in this field.

Abstract
The use of synthetic nanomaterials as contrast agents, sensors, and drug delivery vehicles in biological research primarily requires effective approaches for intracellular delivery. Recently, the well-accepted microelectrophoresis technique has been reported to exhibit the ability to deliver nanomaterials, quantum dots (QDs) as an example, into live cells, but information about cell viability and intracellular fate of delivered nanomaterials is yet to be provided. Here we show that cell viability following microelectrophoresis of QDs is strongly correlated with the amount of delivered QDs, which can be finely controlled by tuning the ejection duration to maintain long-term cell survival. We reveal that microelectrophoretic delivered QDs distribute homogeneously and present pure Brownian diffusion inside the cytoplasm without endosomal entrapment, having great potential for the study of dynamic intracellular events. We validate that microelectrophoresis is a powerful technique for the effective intracellular delivery of QDs and potentially various functional nanomaterials in biological research.

Abstract
Shigella flexneri is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen that causes dysentery. Critical for disease is the ability of Shigella to use an actin-based motility (ABM) process to spread between cells of the colonic epithelium. ABM transports bacteria to the periphery of host cells, allowing the formation of plasma membrane protrusions that mediate spread to adjacent cells. Here we demonstrate that efficient protrusion formation and cell-to-cell spread of Shigella involves bacterial stimulation of host polarized exocytosis. Using an exocytic probe, we found that exocytosis is locally upregulated in bacterial protrusions in a manner that depends on the Shigella type III secretion system. Experiments involving RNA interference (RNAi) indicate that efficient bacterial protrusion formation and spread require the exocyst, a mammalian multi-protein complex known to mediate polarized exocytosis. In addition, the exocyst component Exo70 and the exocyst regulator RalA were recruited to Shigella protrusions, suggesting that bacteria manipulate exocyst function. Importantly, RNAi-mediated depletion of exocyst proteins or RalA reduced the frequency of protrusion formation and also the lengths of protrusions, demonstrating that the exocyst controls both the initiation and elongation of protrusions. Collectively, our results reveal that Shigella co-opts the exocyst complex to disseminate efficiently in host cell monolayers.

Abstract
Resealing of membrane pores is crucial for cell survival. Membrane surface charge and medium composition are studied as defining regulators of membrane stability. Pores are generated by electric field or detergents. Giant vesicles composed of zwitterionic and negatively charged lipids mixed at varying ratios are subjected to a strong electric pulse. Interestingly, charged vesicles appear prone to catastrophic collapse transforming them into tubular structures. The spectrum of destabilization responses includes the generation of long-living submicroscopic pores and partial vesicle bursting. The origin of these phenomena is related to the membrane edge tension, which governs pore closure. This edge tension significantly decreases as a function of the fraction of charged lipids. Destabilization of charged vesicles upon pore formation is universal-it is also observed with other poration stimuli. Disruption propensity is enhanced for membranes made of lipids with higher degree of unsaturation. It can be reversed by screening membrane charge in the presence of calcium ions. The observed findings in light of theories of stability and curvature generation are interpreted and mechanisms acting in cells to prevent total membrane collapse upon poration are discussed. Enhanced membrane stability is crucial for the success of electroporation-based technologies for cancer treatment and gene transfer.

Abstract
Perforin, a pore-forming glycoprotein, has been demonstrated to play key roles in clearing virus-infected cells and tumour cells due to its ability of forming 'pores' on the cell membranes. Additionally, perforin is also found to be associated with human diseases such as tumours, virus infections, immune rejection and some autoimmune diseases. Until now, plenty of perforin genes have been identified in vertebrates, especially the mammals and teleost fish. Conversely, vertebrate homologue of perforin gene was not identified in the invertebrates. Although recently there have been several reviews focusing on perforin and granzymes in mammals, no one highlighted the current advances of perforin in the other vertebrates. Here, in addition to mammalian perforin, the structure, evolution, tissue distribution and function of perforin in bony fish are summarized, respectively, which will allow us to gain more insights into the perforin in lower animals and the evolution of this important pore-forming protein across vertebrates.

Abstract
Exposure of living cells to intense nanosecond pulsed electric field (nsPEF) increases membrane permeability to small solutes, presumably by the formation of nanometer-size membrane lesions. Mechanisms responsible for the restoration of membrane integrity over the course of minutes after nsPEF have not been identified. This study explored if ESCRT-III and Annexin V calcium-dependent repair mechanisms, which play critical role in resealing large membrane lesions, are also activated by electroporation and contribute to the membrane resealing. The extent of membrane damage and the time course of resealing were monitored by the time-lapse imaging of propidium (Pr) uptake in human cervical carcinoma (HeLa) cells exposed to trains of 300-ns PEF. The removal of the extracellular Ca2+ slowed down the resealing, although did not prevent it. Recruitment of CHMP4B protein, a component of ESCRT-III complex, to the electroporated plasma membrane was not observed, thus providing no evidence for possible contribution of the macro-vesicle shedding mechanism. In contrast, silencing the AnxA5 gene impaired resealing and reduced the viability of nsPEF-treated cells. We conclude that Annexin V but not ESCRT-III was involved in the repair of HeLa cells permeabilized by 300-ns stimuli, but it was not the only and perhaps not the main repair mechanism.

Abstract
Background Wound healing is one of the defining features of life and is seen not only in tissues but also within individual cells. Understanding wound response at the single-cell level is critical for determining fundamental cellular functions needed for cell repair and survival. This understanding could also enable the engineering of single-cell wound repair strategies in emerging synthetic cell research. One approach is to examine and adapt self-repair mechanisms from a living system that already demonstrates robust capacity to heal from large wounds. Towards this end, Stentor coeruleus, a single-celled free-living ciliate protozoan, is a unique model because of its robust wound healing capacity. This capacity allows one to perturb the wounding conditions and measure their effect on the repair process without immediately causing cell death, thereby providing a robust platform for probing the self-repair mechanism. Results Here we used a microfluidic guillotine and a fluorescence-based assay to probe the timescales of wound repair and of mechanical modes of wound response in Stentor. We found that Stentor requires ~ 100–1000 s to close bisection wounds, depending on the severity of the wound. This corresponds to a healing rate of ~ 8–80 μm2/s, faster than most other single cells reported in the literature. Further, we characterized three distinct mechanical modes of wound response in Stentor: contraction, cytoplasm retrieval, and twisting/pulling. Using chemical perturbations, active cilia were found to be important for only the twisting/pulling mode. Contraction of myonemes, a major contractile fiber in Stentor, was surprisingly not important for the contraction mode and was of low importance for the others. Conclusions While events local to the wound site have been the focus of many single-cell wound repair studies, our results suggest that large-scale mechanical behaviors may be of greater importance to single-cell wound repair than previously thought. The work here advances our understanding of the wound response in Stentor and will lay the foundation for further investigations into the underlying components and molecular mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Gasdermins were recently identified as the mediators of pyroptosis — inflammatory cell death triggered by cytosolic sensing of invasive infection and danger signals. Upon activation, gasdermins form cell membrane pores, which release pro-inflammatory cytokines and alarmins and damage the integrity of the cell membrane. Roles for gasdermins in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, infectious diseases, deafness and cancer are emerging, revealing potential novel therapeutic avenues. Here, we review current knowledge of the family of gasdermins, focusing on their mechanisms of action and roles in normal physiology and disease. Efforts to develop drugs to modulate gasdermin activity to reduce inflammation or activate more potent immune responses are highlighted. Gasdermins (GSDMs) are a recently characterized protein family that mediate a programmed inflammatory cell death termed pyroptosis. Here, Lieberman and colleagues review current understanding of the expression, activation and regulation of GSDMs, highlighting their roles in cell death, cytokine secretion and inflammation. Emerging opportunities to develop GSDM-targeted drugs and the associated challenges are highlighted.

Abstract
The compartmentalization of eukaryotic cells, which is essential for their viability and functions, is ensured by single or double bilayer membranes that separate the cell from the exterior and form boundaries between the cell’s organelles and the cytosol. Nascent nuclear envelopes and autophagosomes, which both are enveloped by double membranes, need to be sealed during the late stage of their biogenesis. On the other hand, the integrity of cellular membranes such as the plasma membrane, lysosomes and the nuclear envelope can be compromised by pathogens, chemicals, radiation, inflammatory responses and mechanical stress. There are cellular programmes that restore membrane integrity after injury. Here, we review cellular mechanisms that have evolved to maintain membrane integrity during organelle biogenesis and after injury, including membrane scission mediated by the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT), vesicle patching and endocytosis.

Abstract
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) involve chronic inflammation of skeletal muscle and subsequent muscle degeneration due to an uncontrolled autoimmune response; however, the mechanisms leading to pathogenesis are not well understood. A compromised sarcolemmal repair process could promote an aberrant exposure of intramuscular antigens with the subsequent initiation of an inflammatory response that contributes to IIM. Using an adoptive transfer mouse model of IIM, we show that sarcolemmal repair is significantly compromised in distal skeletal muscle in the absence of inflammation. We identified autoantibodies against TRIM72 (also known as MG53), a muscle-enriched membrane repair protein, in IIM patient sera and in our mouse model of IIM by ELISA. We found that patient sera with elevated levels of TRIM72 autoantibodies suppress sarcolemmal resealing in healthy skeletal muscle, and depletion of TRIM72 antibodies from these same serum samples rescues sarcolemmal repair capacity. Autoantibodies targeting TRIM72 lead to skeletal muscle fibers with compromised membrane barrier function, providing a continuous source of autoantigens to promote autoimmunity and further amplifying humoral responses. These findings reveal a potential pathogenic mechanism that acts as a feedback loop contributing to the progression of IIM.

Abstract
The lysosome represents an important regulatory platform within numerous vesicle trafficking pathways including the endocytic, phagocytic, and autophagic pathways. Its ability to fuse with endosomes, phagosomes, and autophagosomes enables the lysosome to break down a wide range of both endogenous and exogenous cargo, including macromolecules, certain pathogens, and old or damaged organelles. Due to its center position in an intricate network of trafficking events, the lysosome has emerged as a central signaling node for sensing and orchestrating the cells metabolism and immune response, for inter-organelle and inter-cellular signaling and in membrane repair. This review highlights the current knowledge of general lysosome function and discusses these findings in their implication for renal glomerular cell types in health and disease including the involvement of glomerular cells in lysosomal storage diseases and the role of lysosomes in nongenetic glomerular injuries.
