Volume 51, no. 12, p. 1714–1720, 2012. After the initial distribution of the LFBK-αVβ6 cell line, studies were conducted to further characterize the cell line. These studies revealed that the LFBK parental cell line and the transduced LFBK-αVβ6 cell line are of porcine genotype and not of bovine origin as stated in the published article. This was confirmed by isoenzyme and real-time reverse transcription-PCR studies. The results presented in the published article describing the cell line remain unchanged except for the statements indicating that the cells are of bovine origin.
