*2.2. Mice*

8-week-old wild-type (WT) female C57BL/6 mice were obtained from Orient Bio (Seongnam, Republic of Korea). BLT2−/<sup>−</sup> mice used in the experiments were generated and genotyped by analyzing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as reported previously [26]. Animals used in the experiments were maintained under a 12:12 h light/dark cycle with a density of 4–5 mice per cage on disposable bedding. The mice were provided with rodent chow and water ad libitum. The study was conducted in strict accordance with guidelines approved by Korea University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (KU-IACUC). The experimental protocol in the present study was approved by KU-IACUC (approval no. KU-IACUC-2022-0031).
