Data are reported as mean ± SD and reporting changes that are associated with aging. Statistical significance was assessed using an ordinary two-way ANOVA with biological replicates, with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. Significance was determined at p < 0.05 (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001).
