Promotion of iHg-mediated cell death by CQ. WT and MerB-expressing cells were exposed to 4 µM MeHg in the presence or absence of 20 µM CQ for 24 h. Cell viability was determined using a CCK-8 assay. Cell viability of WT and MerB-expressing cells. The bar graph represents data from replicated experiments (n = 3, Tukey’s HSD ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01; ###p < 0.001 versus WT).
