Erratum: Effects and molecular mechanisms of Achyranthes bidentata polypeptide k on proliferation of Schwann cells

Erratum to: Ann Transl Med 2021;9:1581.

The article (1) titled “Effects and molecular mechanisms of Achyranthes bidentata polypeptide k on proliferation of Schwann cells” (doi: 10.21037/atm-21-5181) unfortunately contains errors in Figure 3. An error occurred in the 2-hour time point during figure assembly by accident while the legend of Figure 3 remains intact.

Figure 3 in the original article:

The correct version of Figure 3 is shown below.

Figure 3 EdU incorporation reflecting the proliferation of SCs. An EdU cell proliferation assay kit was used to assess proliferation. (A) After ABPPk and NGF were treated for different times, SCs were stained with EdU (red) and Hoechst 33342 (blue), and their morphology was confirmed by fluorescence microscope. Scale bar =50 μm. (B) The ratio of SCs stained by EdU in each group. Results are expressed as the mean ± SEM, n=5. *, P<0.05 vs. the control cells. SCs, Schwann cells; ABPPk, Achyranthes bidentata polypeptide k; NGF, nerve growth factor; SEM, standard error of the mean.

The authors confirmed this error did not affect either the results or the conclusions of the paper.
