Statistical analysis: Independent samples t test or Mann-Whitney U test based on normality testing (Shapiro-Wilk test). The box represents interquartile range (IQR), the line indicates the median, whiskers show the min-max within 1.5 × IQR, and dots represent individual samples. All samples were assayed in duplicate, with intra-assay coefficient of variation (CV) < 10%. Software: GraphPad Prism 10.0.
