[Corrigendum] Spicatoside A in red Liriope platyphylla displays a laxative effect in a constipation rat model via regulating mAChRs and ER stress signaling

Following the publication of the above article, an interested reader drew to the Editor's attention that various of the histological structural images shown in Fig. 5 on p. 190 were strikingly similar to data that were featured in Fig. 1A of a previous paper by the same research group that appeared in the Journal Laboratory Animal Research. On re‑examining their original data, the authors confirmed that an error occurred during the paper submission/production process, and that Fig. 5 did not appear in the above article as the authors had intended. The correct version of Fig. 5, containing the data that the authors intended for inclusion in this article, is shown on the next page. Also shown is a corrected version of Table II corresponding to the replacement version of Fig. 5, containing data that are derived from an analysis of the data shown in this figure. Furthermore, the replacement of the images in Fig. 5, and the revisions of the data made in Table II, also dictate that the following changes are needed to be made in the main text of the paper (all associated with Results section on p. 191, 'Recovery effect of EtRLP on histological alterations of the transverse colon' subsection): The sentences in lines 9‑14 of this section should now read as following (changes from the original text are highlighted in bold): 'Following Lop+EtRLP or Lop+Bisac treatments, the villus length increased by 270‑290% relative to the Lop+Vehicle‑treated group (Fig. 5 and Table II). Furthermore, the alterations in muscle thickness were similar to those in villus length, although crypt layer thickness only increased by 145‑150% relative to the Lop+Vehicle‑treated group (Fig. 5 and Table II)'. Note that the errors made during the assembly of Fig. 5 and Table II did not grossly affect the overall conclusions reported in the paper. All the authors agree with the publication of this corrigendum, and are grateful to the Editor of International Journal of Molecular Medicine for allowing them the opportunity to publish this. They also apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused. [International Journal of Molecular Medicine 43: 185‑198, 2019; DOI: 10.3892/ijmm.2018.3960].
