[Corrigendum] Thymoquinone inhibits epithelial‑mesenchymal transition in prostate cancer cells by negatively regulating the TGF‑β/Smad2/3 signaling pathway

Abstract

After the publication of the article, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that the Du145 'Control' migration panel in Fig. 2C appeared to overlap with the Du145 'Control' invasion panel in Fig. 5A; furthermore, two of the Du145 panels in Fig. 5A also appeared to overlap. The authors have consulted their original data, and realize that these figures were inadvertently assembled incorrectly. The corrected versions of Figs. 2 and 5, incorporating the correct data for the Du145 'Control' panel in Fig. 2C, and the TQ‑/TGF‑β OE‑ invasion and migration panels, and the TQ+/TGF‑β OE+ migration panel, in Fig. 5A, are shown on the next page. These further corrections do not grossly affect the results or the conclusions reported in this work. The authors all agree to this Corrigendum, and are grateful to the Editor of Oncology Reports for granting them the opportunity to correct the errors that were made during the assembly of these figures. Lastly, the authors apologize to the readership for any inconvenience these errors may have caused. [Oncology Reports 38: 3592‑3598, 2017; DOI: 10.3892/or.2017.6012].
