**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
Galectin-3 (LGALS3) functions as a critical molecular sensor and platform orchestrating neuroinflammatory responses through its dual role in detecting lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) and facilitating NLRP3 inflammasome assembly. The protein's β-galactoside-binding lectin domain recognizes exposed β-galactosides on the luminal surface of damaged lysosomal membranes, while its N-terminal domain provides a scaffold for inflammasome component recruitm
**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
The transcription factor EB (TFEB) represents a master regulatory node in cellular proteostasis, functioning as the primary coordinator of the Coordinated Lysosomal Expression and Regulation (CLEAR) network. This helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor orchestrates the expression of over 500 genes involved in lysosomal biogenesis, autophagy, and cellular clearance mechanisms. In Alzheimer's disease (AD), the progressive accumulation of amyloid-
