Response mechanisms of abalone Haliotis discus hannai to lead (Pb) exposure in vitro: insights into autophagy, endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis.

The persistence and toxicity of lead (Pb) pose an enduring threat to aquaculture and the ecosystem through bioaccumulation in the food chain. This study investigated the cellular response mechanism induced by Pb2+ in the commercially valuable mollusc…
