Abstract

In this reply, Lu et al. address the cell line contamination concerns raised in the comment on their original paper (RSC Adv., 2025, 15, 231-243). To ensure the reliability of their conclusions, the key experiments were repeated using authenticated cell lines (Huh-7 and HUVEC), confirming the reproducibility and validity of the reported results.
