Summary
This article has been corrected to include funding acknowledgements from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research and the National Cancer Institute. The scientific findings remain unaffected by this administrative update.
Area of Science:
- Scientific research funding
- Research integrity
Background:
- An omission in the acknowledgements section of a published article was identified.
- The omission involved specific funding sources for the research.
Purpose of the Study:
- To correct an inadvertent omission in the acknowledgements section.
- To ensure proper attribution of research support.
Main Methods:
- Review of the original publication's acknowledgements.
- Identification of the omitted funding information.
Main Results:
- The Stowers Institute for Medical Research (SIMR-1004) was an omitted funding source.
- A National Cancer Institute grant (P30 CA168524) to the University of Kansas Cancer Center was also omitted.
Conclusions:
- The omission was administrative and does not impact the study's results or conclusions.
- The corrected acknowledgements provide full transparency of research support.

Milgram's Obedience to Authority
7.4K
Obedience to authority is classically demonstrated in a more famous series of social psychology experiments performed by Stanley Milgram. He was a social psychology professor at Yale who was influenced by the trial of Adolf Eichmann, a Nazi war criminal. Eichmann’s defense for the atrocities he committed was that he was “just following orders.”

Multipotency of Hematopoietic Stem Cells
3.9K
The hematopoietic stem cells or HSCs are multipotent, meaning they can differentiate and give rise to all blood and immune cells. HSCs are maintained in the quiescent stage until an external stimulus initiates their differentiation. The multipotent HSCs exist as two heterogeneous populations, long-term repopulating cells (LTRC) and short-term repopulating cells (STRC). The two HSC populations have different surface markers or receptors and are classified based on quiescence and long-term...

Regulation of Hematopoietic Stem Cells
4.1K
All blood and immune cells are produced from the multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by the process of hematopoiesis. However, they all have a limited life span. In addition, many are depleted in immune surveillance or combatting an injury or infection. This makes blood one of the most regenerative tissues. Hematopoiesis helps replenish these blood and immune cells, restoring the body's normal functioning. However, overproduction of blood and immune cells can make them cancerous or...

Distance Corrections
293
To achieve precise distance measurements, especially in surveying and construction, certain corrections must be applied to account for potential sources of error like the standardization errors, temperature variations, and slope adjustments.Standardization error emerges when measurement equipment undergoes changes, such as wear, repairs, or weather impacts. To address this, surveyors compare the equipment’s readings to a standard. This process identifies any deviation that might lead to...

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region
18.8K
The eukaryotic promoter region is a segment of DNA located upstream of a gene. It contains an RNA polymerase binding site, a transcription start site, and several cis-regulatory sequences. The proximal promoter region is located in the vicinity of the gene and has cis-regulatory sequences and the core promoter. The core promoter is the binding site for RNA polymerase and is usually located between -35 and +35 nucleotides from the transcription start site. The distal promoter regions are...

Power Factor Correction
544
The power transmission to a factory involves the transfer of apparent power, a combination of active and reactive power. The power factor measures how effectively electrical power is converted into useful work output. The ratio of the real power (KW) that does the work to the apparent power (KVA) supplied to the circuit.
