Following the publication of the above article, the
authors have realized that certain intended corrections were not
carried over to the published version of the article. First, the
description of the results of Figs.
5 and 6 did not match the
figures; Edu and Transwell invasion assays were intended to have
been excluded from the manuscript during the proofreading stage,
although these data were presented in the description of the
results for Figs. 5 and 6. Consequently, the text for the
"circRNA_001275 promotes cell proliferation" subsection of
the Results section towards the end of p. 153 should have read as
follows: "MTT assay was used to detect the effects of
circRNA_001275 on cell proliferation. The results showed that cell
viability was significantly increased in the circRNA_001275 OE
group, and significantly decreased in the si circRNA_001275 group
(both P<0.05, Fig. 5A and B),
compared with the corresponding control groups." Furthermore, the
text in the subsequent subsection ("circRNA_001275 inhibits cell
apoptosis") should have read as follows: "Hoechst 33258
staining was used to detect the effects of circRNA_001275 on
apoptosis. The apoptosis rate was significantly decreased in the
circRNA_001275 OE group, and significantly increased in the si
circRNA_001275 group (both P<0.05; Fig. 6), compared with the corresponding
control group.
Secondly, Fig. 5B
was omitted from Fig. 5 in the
published article; and thirdly, a higher-resolution version of
Fig. 6 was submitted during the
revision stages, although the version of this figure that was
deemed to have been too low in quality was the one that appeared in
the final proofs. The corrected / updated versions of Figs. 5 and 6 are shown opposite.
The Editor of International Journal of
Oncology regrets that certain of these errors were introduced
into the article during the production stages, and apologizes both
to the authors and to the readership.
