Following publication of the original article [1], the authors identified an error in Fig. 5; specifically the HGC-27 cell line in figure 5A. The correct figure is given below.

Fig. 5.

Knockdown of AK023391 inhibited migration and invasion of gastric cancer (GC) cells. a-b Cell migration abilities were respectively determined by the wound-healing assay and Transwell migration assay in si-AK023391-transfected HGC 27, AGS, and SGC-7901 cells. c The cell invasive potential was assessed by the Transwell invasion assay in si-AK023391-transfected HGC 27, AGS, and SGC-7901 cells. **P < 0.01
