In the article entitled “Farnesoid X Receptor Critically Determines the Fibrotic Response in Mice but Is Expressed to a Low Extent in Human Hepatic Stellate Cells and Periductal Myofibroblasts” (Volume 175, pages 2392–2405 of the December 2009 issue of The American Journal of Pathology), several authors’ affiliations were listed incorrectly. Marco Arrese, Margarita Pizarro, and Nancy Solís are members of the Department of Gastroenterology and Facultad de Medicina, and Gonzalo Carrasco is a member of the Department of Pathology and Facultad de Medicina, Escuela de Medicina, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Santiago, Chile.
In the article entitled “Down-Regulation of FXYD3 Expression in Human Lung Cancers: Its Mechanism and Potential Role in Carcinogenesis” (Volume 175, pages 2646–2656 of the December 2009 issue), one author’s affiliation was listed incorrectly. Haruhiko Sugimura is a member of the Department of Pathology, Hamamatsu Medical University, School of Medicine, Hamamatsu, Japan.
In the article entitled “Complement Factor H Is Critical in the Maintenance of Retinal Perfusion” (Volume 175, pages 412–421 of the July 2009 issue), the authors inadvertently omitted a funding source. This work was supported by the Wellcome Trust (WT074617) to J.B.
In the article entitled, “Involvement of CYR61 and CTGF in the Fascin-Mediated Proliferation and Invasiveness of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinomas Cells” (Volume 176, pages 939–951 of the February 2010 issue), the first sentence of the Abstract contained a large text deletion. The correct first sentence should read as “Fascin is overexpressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and involved in the proliferation and invasiveness of ESCC cells.” This error occurred in the print article only; the online (HTML and PDF) versions of this article appear correctly.
In the article entitled, “Human Peripheral Lymphoid Tissues Contain Autoimmune Regulator-Expressing Dendritic Cells” (Volume 176, pages 1104–1112 of the March 2010 issue), Table 2 states that cytokeratins 8/18/19 were detected using antibody CAM5.2 manufactured by BD Biosciences (Mm/lgG2a/CAM5.2/1:50/BD). Although previous BD product inserts indicated that CAM5.2 recognized keratins number 19, 18, and 8, current BD product inserts report that CAM5.2 antibody mainly labels cytokeratins 8 and 7.
