Abstract:
Subsequently to the publication of the above article, the authors have realized that Fig. 4E in their paper contained errors. The image selected to represent the experiment showing the UM‑UC‑3 cells of the siE2F3 group (0 h) was chosen incorrectly during the figure compilation process. A corrected version of Fig. 4 is shown opposite. Note that this error affected neither the interpretation of the data nor the reported conclusions of this work, and all the authors agree to this Corrigendum. The authors apologize to the Editor and the readership of the Journal for this unintentional error, and for any inconvenience caused. [the original article was published in Oncology Reports 36: 1293‑1300, 2016; DOI: 10.3892/or.2016.4923].
Insights
A figure error in a previous publication was identified and corrected. This correction does not alter the original study's findings or conclusions regarding UM-UC-3 cells and siE2F3.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Cell Biology
Background:
- A previous study investigated UM-UC-3 cells and the siE2F3 group.
- A figure error was identified post-publication.
Purpose of the Study:
- To correct an error in Figure 4E of a previously published article.
- To ensure accurate representation of UM-UC-3 cell data for the siE2F3 group.
Main Methods:
- A corrected version of Figure 4 was generated.
- The specific error involved the incorrect selection of an image for UM-UC-3 cells in the siE2F3 group at 0 hours.
Main Results:
- The error in Figure 4E has been rectified with a corrected image.
- The correction does not impact the interpretation of the experimental data.
Conclusions:
- The original conclusions of the study remain valid despite the figure error.
- The authors have issued a corrigendum to address the unintentional mistake.
