The original version of this Article contained an error in Figure 3, panel c, where the LPS⁺/Iba1⁺ and NF-κB⁺/Iba1⁺ images were duplicated. The original Figure 3 and accompanying legend appear below.

Figure 3.

Effect of Klebsiella oxytoca on the occurrence of depression and colitis in germ-free mice. Effect on the occurrence of depression-like behaviors (a) and hippocampal IL-1β level (b), BDNF⁺/NeuN⁺ (c), NF-κB⁺/Iba1⁺ (d), LPS⁺/Iba1⁺ (e), and IL-1R⁺ cell populations (f) in germ-free mice. Klebsiella oxytoca (KO, 1 × 10⁷ CFU/mouse/day) were orally gavaged for 5 days in mice (n = 6, in specific-germ-free mice; n = 4, in germ-free mice). Control mice (NC) were treated with vehicle (saline) instead of the bacterial suspension. Data are shown as box plots. Means with same letters are not significantly different (p < 0.05). All were analyzed using unpaired t-test.

The original Article has been corrected.
