Correction to “Novel long non-coding RNA LINC02532 promotes gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro”

Abstract

We have replaced the misapplied images and the revised Figure 3 is provided.

Core Tip: This is a correction to “Novel long non-coding RNA LINC02532 promotes gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro”. We found that the result of Si-LINC02532 #2 group in the MGC-803 cell invasion assay was displayed by a mistake in Figure 3A. The revised Figure 3 was uploaded.

TO THE EDITOR

We recently read our manuscript[1] published in the World Journal of Gastrointestinal Oncology (manuscript No. 43472, DOI: 10.4251/wjgo.v11.i2.91), and we found that the result of Si-LINC02532 #2 group in the MGC-803 cell invasion assay was displayed by a mistake in Figure 3A. Therefore, we are writing to apply for the modification of Figure 3A. The revised Figure 3 was uploaded in the attachment (Figure 1). This mistake has no influence on the interpretation of the results or conclusion in this study.

Figure 1.

Transwell assays with or without Matrigel were performed to assess the capacity of cell invasion and migration, respectively. A: Transwell assays with or without Matrigel were performed to assess the capacity of cell invasion and migration, respectively. The results revealed that LINC02532 knockdown promoted gastric cancer cell migration and invasion; B: The wound healing assay further displayed that LINC02532 knockdown promoted gastric cancer cell migration. ^aP < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
