: All experiments were performed in mice of the outbred CD-1 strain (Velaz, Prague, Czech Republic). Mice were maintained in plexiglass cages under standard conditions (temperature 22 ± 2 °C, humidity 55 ± 5%, 12:12 h light–dark cycle with lights on 6:00 a.m.), with free access to food and water. All animal experiments were approved by the Ethics Committee for Animal Experimentation of the Institute of Animal Physiology, and by the State Veterinary and Food Administration of the Slovak Republic, and were performed in accordance with Slovak legislation based on EU Directive 2010/63/EU on the protection of animals used for experimental and other scientific purposes.
