Corrigendum to "The Chinese Medicine, Jiedu Recipe, Inhibits the Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via the Regulation of Smad2/3 Dependent and Independent Pathways".

[This corrects the article DOI: 10.1155/2018/5629304.].

In the article titled “The Chinese Medicine, Jiedu Recipe, Inhibits the Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via the Regulation of Smad2/3 Dependent and Independent Pathways” [1], image concerns were raised on PubPeer [2]. Specifically, in Figure 1(c), panels Huh7 JR (0.1 mg/ml) and Huh7 JR (1 mg/ml) appear to be identical. The authors explained that this was due to an error introduced during manuscript preparation and provided the raw data upon request. The corrected image is given as follows.

Figure 1

JR inhibits TGFβ1-induced migration and invasion of HCC cells. The wound healing assay (a-b), transwell assay for the migration (c-d), and invasion (e-f) of SMMC-7721 and Huh7 cells were performed. Each bar represents the means ± SD (n = 3). ∗∗P < 0.01, compared with control group; ##P < 0.01, compared with TGFβ1 group.
