Genes that were regulated in MKN1 cells after 4 h afatinib and trastuzumab + afatinib treatment and were assigned to the biological function “positive regulation of cell motility” were selected (a). Genes that were regulated in NCI-N87 but not in MKN1 and MKN7 cells after 24 h afatinib and trastuzumab + afatinib treatment and were assigned to the biological function “positive regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway” were selected (b). Italics typeface indicates downregulation and bold typeface upregulation

The original article [1] has been corrected.
