Erratum to: Loss of plakoglobin promotes cell-cell contact, increased invasion and breast cancer cell dissemination in vivo

Erratum

After the publication of this study [1] an error was detected in Fig. 2e. The same image was accidently used for beta-catenin staining of MCF7 2A-1 and T47D 2A-4. This error does not affect the findings or conclusions of the article. The corrected figure is shown below and we apologise for this mistake.

Fig. 2.

Shows relative expression of plakoglobin and e-cadherin compared with GAPDH ± SEM before and after siRNA knockdown with (a) scramble sequence or miRNA cassette 2 in MCF7 cells, (b) scramble sequence or miRNA cassette 3 in MCF7 cells, (c) scramble sequence or miRNA cassette 2 in T47D cells. d Are Western blots showing gamma catenin and E-cadherin expression following transfection with scramble sequence or miRNA cassettes 2 and 3. e Shows immunohistochemical staining for γ-catenin, e-cadherin and beta-catenin (green). In the control cells γ-catenin, e-cadherin and β-catenin are expressed on the cell surface clearly demarcating the cell-cell junctions. In the knock down lines, γ-catenin staining is reduced and e-cadherin and β-catenin is detected in the nucleus and the cytoplasm and β-catenin
