Error in Figure
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figures 2 and 3 as published. The authors presented a factual error in the figures, copying and pasting the same information twice in two different places. In the original version, Figures 2I and 3D displayed an identical histological image. In the correction, both have been replaced. The corrected Figure 2 and Figure 3 appear below. The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
Figure 2.
