Corrigendum] Ski prevents TGF‑β‑induced EMT and cell invasion by repressing SMAD‑dependent signaling in non‑small cell lung cancer.

Abstract

Following the publication of the above paper, an interested reader drew to our attention apparent anomalies associated with Figs.2, 3 and 4; essentially, these three figures contained panels exhibiting overlapping data, such that data purportedly relating to different experiments were apparently drawn from the same original sources. [Specifically, the Ski, +TGF‑β1 data panel in Fig.2B, the Mock, +TGF‑β1 data panel in Fig.3A, and the +TGF‑β1, +SIS3 data panel in Fig.4B in the original figures were chosen incorrectly.] Upon investigating this matter with the authors, the authors have realized that they made errors in the compilation of the affected figures. The errors were made inadvertently, and the authors have been able to identify the correct data for each of the figures concerned. The corrected versions of these figures are shown opposite and on the next page. Note that these errors did not affect the overall conclusions reported in the study. The authors are grateful to the Editor of Oncology Reports for allowing them the opportunity to publish this Corrigendum; furthermore, the authors apologize for any inconvenience caused to the readership of the Journal.
