Following the publication of the above article, an
interested reader drew to the authors' attention that, concerning
the images showing the green fluorescence of granulosa cells in
Fig. 5 on p. 874, the images
selected for Fig. 5B and C were
apparently matching, albeit with different levels of brightness,
even though the experimental conditions for these figure parts were
reported to be different.

GCs. (A) Oe negative control virus group, 1011 PFU/ml,
MOI=200; (B) FKBP4-Oe virus group, 2×1010 PFU/ml,
MOI=400; (C) RNAi negative control virus group, 5×1010
PFU/ml, MOI=100; (D) FKBP4-RNAi virus group, 2×1010
PFU/ml, MOI=400). The cell transfection rate was >80%.
Magnification, ×100. GCs, granulosa cells; MOI, multiplicity of

Upon investigating this figure, the authors realized
that the image correctly shown for Fig. 5C had also inadvertently been
included as Fig. 5B. A revised
version of Fig. 5, now showing
the correct data panel for Fig.
5B, is shown below. The authors confirm that the error made
during the assembly of this figure did not have any significant
impact on either the results or the conclusions reported in this
study, and all the authors agree with the publication of this
Corrigendum. The authors 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.
