Subsequently to the publication of the article, the authors have recognized a need to correct some of its content in order to clarify the accuracy of the article's information. First, Dr Yongqing Lai should have been included as the joint corresponding author for this paper. Therefore, the information in the correspondence box should have been as follows (changes are indicated in bold): Correspondence to: Professor Liangchao Ni or Dr Yongqing Lai, Department of Urology, Peking University Shenzhen Hospital, 1120 Lianhua Road, Shenzhen, Guangdong 518036, P.R. China. E‑mail: lncord@163.com, E‑mail: yqlord@163.com. Secondly, the printed version of Fig. 5 featured an incorrect alignment of the scratch wound scratch assay results showing the migratory ability of the 786‑O cells (the lower panel). The corrected version of Fig. 5 is featured opposite. These errors did not have an impact on the overall meaning of the paper, or on the reported conclusions of this study. We regret that these errors were not incorporated into the printed version of the paper, and apologize to the readership for the inconvenience caused.
