Error in Figure

The authors wish to make the following corrections to this paper [1]:
The authors have realized an unfortunate error in the selected representative image for Sham > and TBI + Veh animals. The corrected Figure 5B appears below.
Corresponding to the corrected figure panel, the authors added statistical values (mean ± SEM) in the statement explaining Figure 5C. A correction has been made to the Section 2.5, the 9th Sentence: The number of Annexin V/NeuN positive cells was determined (yellow fluorescence) in the Sham group (13 ± 1), TBI + Veh group (184 ± 30), and TBI + 3,6′-DT group (117 ± 10) cells/mm2 (Figure 5C).
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.

Figure 5. Post-injury administration of 3,6′-DT at 5 h after TBI significantly decreased apoptotic neurons in the cortical contusion regions at 24 h. (A) The representative HE-stained coronal section showing the area as indicated by the black square box to compare the fluorescent signals across groups of rats. (B) The immunofluorescence of Annexin V and NeuN in cortical brain tissue. The Annexin V immunoreactivity is shown in green, and NeuN (a marker for neurons) is shown in red. The yellow color indicates colocalization. (C) The number of Annexin V/NeuN positive cells was elevated when evaluated at 24 h after TBI. Treatment with 3,6′-DT significantly decreased the number of apoptotic neurons compared with TBI + Veh animals. Data are presented as mean ± S.E.M. (n = 5 in each group). *** p < 0.001 compared with the Sham group. # p < 0.05 compared with the TBI + Veh group. Scale bar = 100 μm.
