| Ethical Statement | Animal experiments and isolation of primary cells were carried out following the recommendations in the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, conformed to Swedish animal protection laws and applicable guidelines (djurskyddslagen 1988:534; djurskyddsförordningen 1988:539; djurskyddsmyndigheten DFS 2004:4) in a protocol approved by the local Ethical Committee (Umeå djurförsöksetiska nämnd, permit numbers A12-13, A80-14, A79-14, A21-2020). Written informed consent was obtained from the owners for the participation of their animals in this study. |
