Excerpt

We have read with great interest the letter by He et al., where several concerns regarding our recently published work in the journal [1] are stressed. We want to thank the authors for their critical analysis of our interpretation of the data, and we celebrate that the subject is a matter of debate, which to our understanding, underlines the relevance this topic has gained in the recent years. …
