There was a mistake in the caption of “Figure 5” as published. The item “(E) Serum melatonin concentration” was mistakenly included in the figure legend, and Panel E was incorrectly described. The corrected caption of “Figure 5” appears below:

“Figure 5. Analysis of serum biomarkers in mice. (A) Serum IL-4 concentration. (B) Serum IL-5 concentration. (C) Serum IL-13 concentration. (D) Serum cortisol concentration. (E) Serum total IgE concentration. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001.”

There was a mistake in the in-text citation as published. The citation “Figures 5A–C, F” should be corrected to “Figures 5A–C, E”.

A correction has been made to the section “3 Results, subsection 3.6 Melatonin and glucocorticoid co-therapy reduces pathological damage, mucus secretion, and inflammation, Paragraph 1”:

“As illustrated in Figures 5A–C, E, levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and IgE were significantly elevated in the model group relative to the control group”.

The original version of this article has been updated.
