[Corrigendum] High expression of hnRNPA1 promotes cell invasion by inducing EMT in gastric cancer

Subsequently to the publication of the above paper, an interested reader drew to the Editor's attention that the control GAPDH western blots shown in Fig. 1D on p. 1696 were strikingly similar to the GAPDH blots shown in Fig. 2A on p. 1697, even though the experimental conditions were reported to be different for these figures. In addition, upon analyzing the data in this paper independently in the Editorial Office, it came to light that certain of the hnRNPA1 blots shown in Fig. 1B were strikingly similar to blots that had already been published in a paper in the journal Oncotarget that featured two of the authors in common (Jide Wang and Side Liu). The authors were able to consult their original data, and realized that these data had inadvertently been included incorrectly in these two figures. Revised and corrected versions of Figs. 1 and 2, now showing replacement data for the western blots featured in Figs. 1B, 1D and 2A, are shown on the next two pages. Note that the replacement of the original data with the revised data in this pair of figures has not had a significant impact on the conclusions reached in this study. The authors regret the errors that were made during the compilation of the original figures, and are grateful to the editor of Oncology Reports for allowing them the opportunity to publish this corrigendum. All the authors agree with the publication of this corrigendum; furthermore, they apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused.
