Declaration
:
: The study was carried out in accordance with the European Communities Council Directive of 2010 (2010/63/ EU) for care of laboratory animals and approved by the animal welfare commission of the Ruhr-University Bochum (Institutional Animal Research Facility; University of Bochum; Germany) and LANUV (Landesamt für Natur, Umwelt und Verbraucherschutz Nordrhein-Westfalen; North Rhine-Westphalia; Germany). Our research was not likely to cause pain, suffering, distress or lasting harm equivalent to, or higher than, that caused by the introduction of a needle in accordance with good veterinary practice. It is therefore no subject to approval as an animal experiment.
