Abstract
- Lead can induce oxidative stress and increase lipid peroxidation in biofilms, leading to liver damage and physiological dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate how oyster ferritin (GF1) attenuates lead-induced oxidative damage to the liver in vitro and in vivo. Animal experiments have confirmed that lead exposure can lead to oxidative damage and lipid peroxidation of the liver, and ferritin can regulate the activity of antioxidant enzymes and alleviate pathological changes in the liver. At the same time, oyster ferritin can regulate the expression of oxidative stress-related genes and reduce the expression of inflammasome-related genes. In addition, lead can induce apoptosis and mitophagy, leading to overproduction of reactive oxygen species and cell death, which can be effectively alleviated by oyster ferritin. Overall, this study provides a theoretical foundation for the use of oyster ferritin as a means of mitigating and preventing lead-induced damage. • Oyster can regulate the activity of antioxidant enzymes and alleviate pathological changes in the liver. • Oyster ferritin can regulate the expression of oxidative stress-related genes and inflammasome-related genes. • Oyster ferritin can effectively alleviate lead-induced apoptosis and mitochondrial autophagy in LO2 cells.
