: All animal work was performed in accordance with the recommendations in the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Animals were handled according to approved Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) protocol (#4383–02) of the University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA. The University of Washington has an approved Animal Welfare Assurance (#A3464–01) on file with the NIH Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare (OLAW), is registered with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA, certificate #91-R-0001), and is accredited by AAALAC International. Every effort was made to minimize suffering. All work was performed using Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (virus antibody-free CD<sup>®</sup>, Rattus norvegicus, IGS, Charles River Laboratories, Raleigh, NC, USA) that arrived at P5 with a nursing dam. Each dam and her pups were housed under standard conditions with an automatic 12 h light/dark cycle, temperature range of 20–26 °C, and access to standard chow and sterile tap water ad libitum. The pups were checked for health daily.
