ABSTRACT

This erratum is to correct the following:(1) In the Western Blotting subsection under the Materials and Methods section, the concentration of protein from each sample loaded into Criterion Tris-HCl gels was incorrectly stated as 155 lg of protein. The correct value is 9.7 lg.(2) In Fig. 1b, the bar graph showed incorrect values for semi-quantitation of Western blots. Figure 1 has been updated with a corrected graph in Fig. 1b only and is shown below.The major findings and conclusions of this paper are not affected by these changes. The protein loading error was typographical, and the validation of vimentin knockdown was confirmed by multiple methods (qRT-PCR, Western, immunofluorescence), all showing a consistent decrease in vimentin expression.
