Owing to an oversight in the production process, Fig. 4 of the above article was not published as the finally corrected version; essentially, the units of the y-axis [‘Distance of dye diffusion (µm)’] were printed incorrectly.
Figure 4.
Treatment with T and A promotes GJIC functions of mesenchymal stem cell-derived endothelial cell-like cells. (A) GJIC was evaluated 20 min following the scrape and incubation with fluorescent dye. (B) The distance that the dye diffused perpendicular to the scrape was measured and calculated. *P<0.05 vs. Ctrl group. #P<0.05 vs. T+A group. T, Tanshinone IIA; A, Astragaloside IV; GJIC, gap junctional intercellular communication; Cx, connexin; Ctrl, control.
Fig. 4 should have appeared as shown opposite. This error did not have an impact on the overall meaning of the paper, or on the reported conclusions of this study. We regret that the non-corrected units were allowed to remain in the published version of Fig. 4 in this paper, and apologize to the authors and the readership for the inconvenience caused.
