Following publication of the original article [1], the authors reported that “C56Bl/6J” in Methods, and “C56BL/6 mice” in Conclusion and Fig. 1 should be corrected to “C57BL/6 mice”.

The originally published wrong sentence in Animals section of Methods was:

We used male and female C56Bl/6J mice (Janvier Labs, Le Genest-Saint-Isle, France) which is the most commonly used mouse line in translational studies.

The correct sentence in Animals section of Methods should read:

We used male and female C57BL/6 mice (Janvier Labs, Le Genest-Saint-Isle, France) which is the most commonly used mouse line in translational studies.

The originally published wrong sentence in Conclusion was:

A limitation of both our study and most of publications is that they were done in C56BL/6 mice. It is the most commonly used mouse line in many fields of translational biomedicine including neurobiology, however to which extend these conclusions apply to other lines (such as BALB/c, ICR, Swiss albino) remains to be investigated.

The correct sentence in Conclusion should read:

A limitation of both our study and most of publications is that they were done in C57BL/6 mice. It is the most commonly used mouse line in many fields of translational biomedicine including neurobiology, however to which extend these conclusions apply to other lines (such as BALB/c, ICR, Swiss albino) remains to be investigated.
