Error in Figure
In the original publication [1], a duplication between Figures 5 and 6 was identified. This error occurred due to an oversight during the proofreading process. The flow cytometry experiment was repeated to ensure the data’s accuracy. The corrected version of Figure 6 is presented below.
Figure 6.
Analysis of apoptosis using the Annexin-V staining in A549 cells: (A) the control, (B) blank GNE, (C) CTD, (D) CTD-GNE and (E) the percentage of apoptotic or necrotic cells using flow cytometric analysis. All data are expressed as the mean ± SE of three independent experiments. * p < 0.05 is considered significantly different from the control, # p < 0.05 is considered significantly different from the blank GNE, and $ p < 0.05 is considered significantly different from CTD.
Text Correction
In the description of “Section 2.5.3. Annexin V–FITC Apoptosis Assay”, the last three sentences are to be modified for the updated machine used as follows:
The Annexin-V FACS analyses were performed using a Cytek® Northern Lights 2000 spectral flow cytometer (Cytek Biosciences, Fremont, CA, USA) and using SpectroFlo™ Software version 2.2.0.3 (Cytek Biosciences, Fremont, CA, USA).
In the description of the results in “Section 3.5. Annexin V Apoptosis Assay”, minor modification of the third sentence is requested as follows:
CTD-GNE significantly increased the percentage of early, late, and total apoptosis in A549 cells compared to the control, blank GNE, and CTD-treated cells (Figure 6).
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
