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.

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.
