Correction to: Nature Communications 10.1038/s41467-022-35309-y, published online 20 December 2022

In this article the word ‘not’ was inadvertently omitted from the sentence “In addition, colonic interleukin (IL)−1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, were higher in AR-DSS (Fig. 1l) than their DSS counterparts, while the genes that regulate intestinal epithelial barrier function (zonula occludin-1 [ZO-1; Tjp1], and occludin [Ocln]), were reduced in AR-DSS compared to their DSS counterparts (Fig. 1m).” in the Results section. The corrected sentence reads “In addition, colonic interleukin (IL)−1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, were higher in AR-DSS (Fig. 1l) than their DSS counterparts, while the genes that regulate intestinal epithelial barrier function (zonula occludin-1 [ZO-1; Tjp1], and occludin [Ocln]), were not reduced in AR-DSS compared to their DSS counterparts (Fig. 1m).”

In addition, the citation to reference 59 in the sentence ”This finding is consistent with previous study that found CS did not induce colitis in mice59“ in the Discussion section should instead cite reference 60. The corrected sentence reads “This finding is consistent with previous study that found CS did not induce colitis in mice60”.

These errors have been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the Article.
