^b Statistical significance compared with WT was determined by the two-tailed Student's t test, p < 0.05.

^c Statistical significance compared with WT was determined by the two-tailed Student's t test, p < 0.001.

^d Statistical significance compared with WT was determined by the two-tailed Student's t test, p < 0.01.
