Abstract

Correction to “Interleukin-34 promotes the proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of gastric cancer cells”. In this article, we found the following error in Figure 3A: The panel image "24 h, sh-RNA1" in the AGS cells wound healing assay was incorrectly inserted during the preparation of the submission; the correct figure is provided in this correction.

Key Words: Correction, Gastric cancer, Interleukin-34, Proliferation, Epithelial-mesenchymal transition, Metastasis

Core Tip: The aim of this manuscript is to correct the image in Figure 3A of “Li CH, Chen ZM, Chen PF, Meng L, Sui WN, Ying SC, Xu AM, Han WX. Interleukin-34 promotes the proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of gastric cancer cells.

TO THE EDITOR

Correction to: Li CH, Chen ZM, Chen PF, Meng L, Sui WN, Ying SC, Xu AM, Han WX. Interleukin-34 promotes the proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of gastric cancer cells. World J Gastrointest Oncol 2022; 14: 1968-1980 [PMID: 36310707 DOI: 10.4251/wjgo.v14.i10.1968]. We identified the following error in Figure 3A of the original version of the published article: The image relative to "24 h, sh-RNA1" in the AGS cell wound healing assay was inserted incorrectly during the preparation of the submission. The correct Figure is provided in this correction (Figure 1). This correction will have no influence on the interpretation of the results and conclusion in this study. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Figure 1 Interleukin-34 regulates the migration and invasiveness of AGS cells. A and B: Wound-healing assay revealed that downregulation of endogenous interleukin-34 significantly reduced the migration rate. Data derived from three independent experiments performed in triplicate and expressed as mean ± SD, and aP < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
