[Corrigendum] Type II cGMP‑dependent protein kinase inhibits the migration, invasion and proliferation of several types of human cancer cells

Subsequently to the publication of this paper, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that Figs. 3 (showing how PKG II overexpression inhibits the migration of various types of cancer cells) and 6 (showing representative photomicrographs of apoptotic cells under different experimental conditions at x200 magnification) contained apparently duplicated data panels within the figures. After having examined their original data, the authors have realized that these figures were inadvertently assembled incorrectly; specifically, the data shown in the HepG2-Ad-LacZ+EGF and OS-RC-2-Ad-LacZ+EGF panels in Fig. 3A and the HepG2-Ad-LacZ+cGMP+EGF, OS-RC-2-Ad-PKGII+cGMP+EGF and U251-Ad-PKGII+cGMP+EGF panels in Fig. 6A were selected incorrectly. The corrected versions of Figs. 3 and 6 are shown on the next two pages. Note that these errors did not significantly affect the results or the conclusions reported in this paper, and all the authors agree to this Corrigendum. The authors are grateful to the Editor of Molecular Medicine Reports for allowing them the opportunity to publish this and apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused.
