In this article [1], the ARS staining image originally representing the SpA group was mistakenly placed in the SpA + NC-kd panel, the Fig. 2c was incorrectly displayed, the correct Fig. 2c was shown below:
Incorrect Figure 2:
Fig. 2.
Silencing of METTL3 reverses the effects of SpA on osteogenic differentiation, oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in hBMSCs. A The knockdown efficiency of silencing METTL3 in hBMSCs was examined by RT-qPCR. B Western blot analysis was performed to measure the expression of Runx2, OCN and ALP in hBMSCs of Control, SpA, SpA+NC-kd and SpA+METTL3-kd groups. C–D The calcium deposition was detected by ARS staining in Control, SpA, SpA+NC-kd and SpA+METTL3-kd groups (scale bars, 50 μm). E The protein levels of SOD, CAT and GSH in hBMSCs of Control, SpA, SpA+NC-kd and SpA+METTL3-kd groups were measured by ELISA. F The expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in Control, SpA, SpA+NC-kd and SpA+METTL3-kd groups of hBMSCs was assessed by ELISA. *p<0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.005
