: Mouse studies were carried out in accordance with UK Home Office regulations and the UK Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act of 1986 under UK Home Office licences, and the study was approved by the Wellcome Sanger Institute or the King’s College London Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Bodies. Mice were culled using methods approved under these licences to minimise any possibility of suffering. Mice were group-housed in individually ventilated cages at a standard temperature and humidity and in specific-pathogen-free conditions, with lighting on a 12 h on/12 hours off cycle, and in accordance with the EU Directive 2010/63/EU for animal experiments.
