Following the publication of the original article [1], the authors identified an error in Fig. 7D. The image presented for the MKRN1 f/f group (IHC staining of TGF-β1) was inadvertently incorrect due to an oversight during figure preparation.
Fig. 7.
MKRN1 promotes tumour proliferation and metastasis in vivo. A Comparative graph showing the number of intestinal lesions in the MKRN1 [+/+] and MKRN1 [f/f ] groups. B Haematoxylin–eosin (H&E) staining of the intestine of both groups of mice (scale bar: 100 μm). C H&E staining of the liver in the two groups of mice (scale bar: 100 μm; scale bar: 20 μm). D IHC staining for Ecadherin, MKRN1, SNIP1, and TGFβ1 in the intestinal tissues of the two groups of mice (scale bar: 100 μm). E Western blotting analysis of Ecadherin, MKRN1, SNIP1, and TGFβ1 protein expression in intestinal tissues of the two groups of mice. F MKRN1 facilitates the TGFβ signalling via ubiquitination and degradation of SNIP1, thereby promoting EMT in CRC cells. *P < 0.05, *P < 0.01, * P < 0.001
The correct figure is presented below:
