Following the publication of the above article, the authors have contacted the Editorial Office to explain that they had assembled the cellular morphological images in Fig. 1A on p. 819 incorrectly; essentially, the cell morphology of 2 passages of hBMSCs (centre panel) should have been shown as the data panel for 3 passages of hBMSCs (right-hand panel), and likewise, the cell morphology of 3 passages of hBMSCs should have been shown as the data panel for 2 passages of hBMSCs.

Figure 1 Characterization of hBMSCs. (A) Morphology and (B) flow cytometry analysis of hBMSCs. hBMSCs expressed CD29, but not CD34. hBMSCs, human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells; PE, phycoerythrin; cd29, integrin-β1; cd34, hematopoietic progenitor cell antigen cd34.

The revised version of Fig. 1 is shown below. The authors confirm that the errors associated with this figure did not have any significant impact on either the results or the conclusions reported in this study, and are grateful to the Editor of International Journal of Molecular Medicine for allowing them the opportunity to publish this Corrigendum. Furthermore, they apologize to the readership of the Journal for any inconvenience caused.
